Exploring a range of failures - individual and institutional, technological and historiographical - Photography and Failure asks what it means to fail and considers how this narrative of failure has shaped our understanding of photography. From the trial-and-error beginnings of photochemistry to poor business decisions influenced by fickle public opinion and taste, the founders and early practitioners of photography frequently faced bankruptcy and ignominy. Alongside these individual 'failures', this collection of essays examines the role of museums in rediscovering, preserving and presenting photographs within institutions, as well as technological limitations, such as the problematic panoramic lens or the digital, archival failures of Snapchat. Moving beyond the physical photograph and these processes, the book also investigates the limitations of photographs themselves, as purveyors of truth, time, space, documentary realism and social change, whether these failures are used to effect or not.0. 650 0 $a Photography $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Photography $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Photography $x History. 650 0 $a Photographic errors. 700 1 $a Belden-Adams, Kris, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Photography and failure. $d London, UK ; New York, NY, USA : Bloomsbury Academic, an imprint of Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, 2017 $z 9781474293396 $w (DLC) 2017009616 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217030032.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=71F0F358580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
