Auflösungs/erscheinungen. Positionen zum fotografischen Verschwinden
VOLUME 223

The new FUNDUS volume Auflösungs/erscheinungen. Positionen zum fotografischen Verschwinden (Dissolution phenomena. Positions on photographic dis/appearance) scrutinizes photography in its manifestations as material object, technical visual medium, information carrier, and metaphoric space within the semantic field of disappearance. Among the subjects the authors study are the documentary force of photographs as evidence of social and political states of affairs, the gatekeeper function of technological solutions like social media, “obsolete” technical procedures and the afterlife of outdated equipment, reflections on time in film, the staged disappearance in the photographic image, and holography. Edited by Dennis Jelonnek (German Center for Art History Paris) and Aïcha Revellat (eikones—Center for the Theory and History of the Image, Basel), the volume of essays is rounded out by creative contributions to the discussion.
