Description
The exhibition Susanne Kriemann: Ray, Rock, Rowan (Being a Photograph) is accompanied by the reader Being a Photograph, published in the Edition Camera Austria.
Here, Susanne Kriemann proposes a shift in the understanding of photography from the noun “photograph” to an active form and focuses on photography as a figure of thought to engage with the idea of an animate language. Such a grammar of animacy could extend beyond plants and animals to rocks and places, leading to different ways of being in the world.
This reader, designed by James Langdon, assembles texts by authors who offer a further frame of reference for Susanne Kriemann’s work: Siobhan Angus, Bernadette Bensaude-Vincent, Zippora Elders, Daisy Hildyard, Bhanu Kapil, Kyveli Mavrokordopoulou, and Lisa Rosendahl.
