Becoming: The Photographs of Clementina, Viscountess Hawarden
ISBN: 9780822323891 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 266 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Clementina, Viscountess Hawarden (1822-1865) produced over eight hundred photographs during her all-too-brief life. Most of these were portraits of her adolescent daughters. By whisking away the furniture and bric-a-brac common in scenes of upper-class homes of the Victorian period, Lady Hawarden transformed the sitting room of her London residence into a photographic studio--a private space for taking surprising photos of her daughters in fancy dress. In Carol Mavor's hands, these pictures become windows into Victorian culture, eroticism, mother-daughter relationships, and intimacy.

Photography's Other Histories
ISBN: 9780822331131 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Moving the critical debate about photography away from its current Euro-American center of gravity, Photography's Other Histories breaks with the notion that photographic history is best seen as the explosion of a Western technology advanced by the work of singular individuals. This collection presents a radically different account, describing photography as a globally disseminated and locally appropriated medium. Essays firmly grounded in photographic practice--in the actual making of pictures--suggest the extraordinary diversity of nonwestern photography.
