Photographic realism: Late twentiethcentury aesthetics provides an accessible and useful introduction to uses of photography in art practice, and relates them to wider cultural ideas. Focusing on conceptual and political projects between 1970 and the turn of the century, it draws parallels between issues discussed in theory and those displayed visually in practice. Tormey discusses a dynamic era in photographys history, which follows the influences of conceptual art and shifts in thinking about representation and subjectivity. The author moves away from the preoccupations of modernist photography to outline a photographic aesthetic that signals a direction for development in the twentyfirst century, exampled here by the complex practices of Chinese photography. This book emphasises how photographs construct ideas, make comments and promote thought philosophically, culturally and politically.
