Photography and Its Shadow argues that the invention of photography marked a rupture in our relation to the world and what we see in it. The dominant theoretical and artistic paradigm for understanding the invention has been the tracing of shadows. But what photography really inaugurated was the shadow s disappearance–a disappearance that irreversibly changed our relationship to nature and the real to time and to death. A way of negotiating impermanence photography was marked from the start by an inherent contradiction. It conflated two incompatible configurations of the visible: an embodied human eye deeply sensitive to nature and a machine vision that aimed to reify the instant and wallow in images alone. Photography s history is replete with efforts to conceal the mystery of its paradoxical constitution. Born in the century of Nietzsche s death of God it long enacted the fraught subjectivity of its age. Anxious haunted by a void it used an array of strategies to take on ever-new identities. Challenging the hitherto most influential accounts of the practice and taking us from its origins to the present Hagi Kenaan shows us how photography has been transformed over time and how it transforms us.
