Photo Obscura: The Photographic in Post-Photography. > Bristol/Chicago: Intellect, 2025. 198 pages. > > Drawing on photo history, media studies, visual studies, art history, and the > digital humanities, Photo Obscura argues that the profound transformation of > post-photography is not merely a trend but a significant movement that > redefines photography by integrating it with emerging technologies and > creative practices, resulting in works that may not even resemble photographs > but still retain a photographic influence. It is structured around various > themes, including AI-generated images, the intersection of digital and > physical art forms, and the changing relationship between visual > representation and perception with in-depth discussions of artworks by > Richard A.
