Public, Private, Secret: On Photography and the Configuration of Self,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Public, Private, Secret explores the roles that photography and video play in the crafting of identity, and the reconfiguration of social conventions that de ne our public and private selves. Consciously framed by our present era, this collection of essays, interviews, and reflections assesses how our imagemaking and consumption patterns are embedded and implicated in a wider matrix of online behavior and social codes, which in turn give images a life of their own. Within this context, our visual creations and online activities blur and remove conventional delineations between public and private (and sometimes secret) expression; in fact, they multiply and expand the number of potential selves in the contemporary imagecentric world. The writings address the various disruptions, resistances, and subversions that artists propose to the limited versions of race, gender, sexuality, and autonomy that populate mainstream popular culture. In so doing, they anticipate a future for our imageworld rich with diversity and alterity, one that can be shaped and influenced by the agency of self representation.
