It shows how many of the same phenomena that helped generate the country's most recognisable photographs also led to a range of lesser-known pictures that similarly documented or negotiated Germany's cultural identity and historical ruptures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book rethinks the photography we commonly associate with the country by focusing on how the medium heavily defined the notion of 'German'. As a product of the modern age, photography intervened in a fraught project of national imagining, largely productively but sometimes catastrophically. \u003ci\u003ePhotography and Germany\u003c\/i\u003e covers this history chronologically, from early experiments in light-sensitive chemicals, to the tension between analogue and digital technologies that have stimulated the famous contemporary art photography associated with the country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRichly illustrated with many previously unpublished images, \u003ci\u003ePhotography and Germany\u003c\/i\u003e is a cogent, insightful history of photography's relationship with Germany's sometimes difficult past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"NewSouth Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47464144929004,"sku":"9781780237480","price":59.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781780237480-photography-and-germany.jpg?v=1775038547"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/andres-mario-zervigon-1.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
