Autofocus. The Car in Photography - Marta Weiss - książka
Producent: Thames AND Hudson
Undoubtedly, the car stands as one of the most transformative inventions of the modern era. It has not only reshaped manufacturing but also altered our methods of transportation, leaving a lasting imprint on our landscapes, cities, environments, and economies. Each phase of this transformation has had a profound effect on broader cultural contexts, influencing not just our lifestyles but also our perspectives on the world around us. The impact of automobiles on photography, capturing the imagination of photographers since the early 1900s, can be distinctly followed through the V&A's extensive photography collection. "Autofocus" delves into the car's cultural and historical significance within photography, examining its role both as a subject and as an innovative medium that has enabled photographers to produce significant works. Written by Marta Weiss, a Senior Curator of Photographs at the V&A, this publication coincides with the November 2019 launch of the exhibition 'Cars: Accelerating the Modern World'. "Autofocus" features over 100 compelling photographs, accompanied by insightful commentaries and a substantial introduction of approximately 1,500 words, tracing the automotive journey from its inception to the present. For enthusiasts of both photography and automobiles, "Autofocus" highlights how the car has risen to become a cultural emblem, shaping the current and future world in various dimensions.
