To mark the release of the third book in the Superscripte collection, Photographie et écologie by Lisa Mazenauer, the bookshop librairie sans titre, in Paris, is hosting the authors of the three books, the collection’s designers and the editors for a presentation of the collection.
Talk and presentation of the collection (in French) with the authors, designers and publishers of the collection at 19:00.
Founded in 2024, the collection Superscripte. Textes sur la photographie contemporaine, offers introductory and synthetic texts in French on contemporary photographic practices in all their diversity, through the prism of a single concept – exhibition, violence, ecology or artificial intelligence, for example. By bringing together texts written by artists, art historians, sociologists and educators, the collection aims to highlight different perspectives and the specific skills that arise from different ways of thinking about images. Designed with photographers, artists, art historians, students, or simply photography enthusiasts in mind, this series aims to provide the keys to understanding certain themes or photographic forms that are omnipresent in today’s visual culture.
The third book of the collection, Photographie et écologie, by Lisa Mazenauer, addresses issues such as: How does photography depict our environment? How does it contribute to its destruction? This book explores this paradox through the analysis of the work of fifteen contemporary artists.
The second publication, Exposition de photographie, by Nassim Daghighian, offers an analysis of the different exhibition forms in contemporary photography.
The first title of the collection, Femmes – Violences, by Aline Bovard Rudaz, is a study of new representations and denunciations of gender violence by women in contemporary photography.
