The last decade has seen a huge growth in interest in photography and its role in contemporary art. In this book David Bate introduces the key themes central to photographic art practice through selected visual examples and references to contemporary debates and issues, while also providing a historical overview. Featuring works from a wide and international selection of artists, the book includes conceptual and post-conceptual work, documentary photography, archives and social networks, and performance. It focuses on the increasingly global nature of the field not just the Anglo-American/European context, but also the emerging regions of Asia, Africa and the Middle East. This is an essential introductory guide
to thinking about photography in its relation to contemporary art from a leading writer in the field.
