Faking It: Manipulated Photography before Photoshop,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Photographic manipulation is a familiar phenomenon in the digital era. What will come as a revelation to readers of this captivating, wideranging book is that nearly every type of manipulation we associate with Adobes nowubiquitous Photoshop software was also part of photographys predigital repertoire, from slimming waistlines and smoothing away wrinkles to adding people to (or removing them from) pictures, not to mention fabricating events that never took place. Indeed, the desire and determination to modify the camera image are as old as photography itselfonly the methods have changed.By tracing the history of manipulated photography from the earliest days of the medium to the release of Photoshop 1.0 in 1990, Mia Fineman offers a corrective to the dominant narrative of photographys development, in which champions of photographic purity, such as Paul Strand, Edward Weston, and Henri CartierBresson, get all the glory, while devotees of manipulation, including Henry Peach Robinson, Edward Steichen, and John Heartfield, are treated as conspicuous anomalies. Among the techniques discussed on these pagesabundantly illustrated with works from an international array of public and private collectionsare multiple exposure, combination printing, photomontage, composite portraiture, overpainting, hand coloring, and retouching. The resulting images are as diverse in style and motivation as they are in technique. Taking her argument beyond fine art into the realms of politics, journalism, fashion, entertainment, and advertising, Fineman demonstrates that the old adage the camera does not lie is one of photographys great fictions.Published by The Metropolitan Museum of Art/Distributed by Yale University PressExhibition Schedule:The Metropolitan Museum of Art(10/11/1201/27/13)The National Gallery, Washington, D.C.(02/17/1305/05/13)Museum of Fine Arts, Houston(06/02/1308/25/13)
