This is the third in our series of books exploring key aspects of both contemporary and historic photography. With 480 pages and more than 100 colour illustrations The Photograph and The Album: Histories, Practices, Futures is a perceptive and stimulating guide to understanding that most pervasive photographic format, the photo album. Becoming "increasingly unruly," it has survived for over 150 years, from the first experimental albums of the 1850s to today's interactive, mobile applications. Through the placing of single images in sequence, the photo album is the narrative format par excellence. And, as this book demonstrates, its narratives embrace the social, the historical, the sexual and the political. With contributions from twenty respected international authors - academics, curators, photographers, collectors, researchers and writers - The Photograph and The Album examines the topic in both visual and written form, spanning historic practice, present-day creation, and future trends. "A welcome addition to the growing trend in seriously exploring the cultural context of the album form." Angela Kelly, Associate Professor, Rochester Institute of Technology, New York.
