| Description: |
Challenging traditional theories of photography, Francois Laruelle sets out to think the photograph according to his practice of 'non-philosophy', so as to discover an essence of photography that precedes its historical, technological, and aesthetic conditions. Bilingual (English/French) edition. |
| Synopsis: |
If philosophy has always understood its relation to the world according to the model of the instantaneous flash of a photographic shot, how can there be a 'philosophy of photography' that is not viciously self-reflexive? Challenging the assumptions made by any theory of photography that leaves its own 'onto-photo-logical' conditions uninterrogated, Laruelle thinks the photograph non-philosophically, so as to discover an essence of photography that precedes its historical, technological and aesthetic conditions. 'The Concept of Non-Photography' develops a rigorous new thinking of the photograph in its relation to science, philosophy, and art, and introduces the reader to all of the key concepts of Laruelle's 'non-philosophy'. |
