The Disciplinary Frame: Photographic Truths and the Capture of Meaning


Add your own review!

Overview

Photography can seem to capture reality and the eye like no other medium,commanding belief and wielding the power of proof. In some cases, a photographitself is attributed the force of the real. How can a piece of chemically discolored paper have such potency? How does the meaning of a photograph become fixed? In The Disciplinary Frame, John Tagg claims that, to answer these questions, we must look at the ways in which all that frames photography-the discourse that surrounds it and the institutions that circulate it-determines what counts as truth.
