Ariel Goldberg's \u003cem\u003ephotographer\u003c\/em\u003e might be an essayist, philosopher, or performance artist, or they might well be you, a twenty-first-century citizen caught in the crossfire of electronic media sharing, from ubiquitous selfies capturing the minutiae of people's lives to whistle-blowing stills leaked during wartime. In an age when anyone with a smartphone is a potential photojournalist, what separates a framed composition from real life, a chance snapshot from a monumental expos ? You'll find a panorama of bracing responses here in Goldberg's genre- defying texts, including confessional alt captions for irretrievable images, epistolary meditations on the unusual ways photos are viewed today, a discursive press conference that questions photographic permission, and a campy garage-sale lecture on the obsolescence of camera accessories--all underscored by the keen, enigmatic voice of a present-day photographer who knows the tricks of the trade but holds to a credo of candor, who contends both voluntarily and involuntarily with what Susan Sontag called 'an ethics of seeing.'--Pamela Lu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ariel Goldberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1931824606\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781931824606\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Roof Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 7.90w x 0.30d","brand":"Ariel Goldberg","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44860478488831,"sku":"9781931824606","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ca409ff9-2a64-461c-a8eb-c2e49b1146c5.jpg?v=1709136182","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-photographer-ariel-goldberg-9781931824606","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
