Australian Photo-History Publications<\/strong><\/h5>\n

<\/p>\n

I have unearthed an essay from 1976 which was a commentary about photo-history books available at the time.<\/p>\n

This was published in the magazine Australian Photography \u2013 a contemporary view<\/em>, edited by Laurence Le Guay.<\/p>\n

That essay we have now uploaded to our photo-web site as an online version of the original<\/p>\n

Click on the link to see that online version \u2013  \u2018Pictures in Print<\/a>\u2019.<\/p>\n

More recently I was looking through my shelf of Australian photo-histories that includes Jack Cato\u2019s 1955 \u2018The Story of the Camera in Australia\u2019<\/em> the first book length history of photography in Australia.<\/p>\n

In 1986 I wrote an article for Photofile about this book and how it came about.<\/p>\n

The article was titled A Story of the Story<\/em> and was based on the correspondence between Jack Cato and Keast Burke. This we had previously uploaded to our web site \u2013 click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Magazines both for the amateur and professional market whether corporate, commercial publishers or arts grants, have all played a role in promoting awareness of photographic heritage, past and present-day individual photographers or debate on the medium\u2019s role in visual culture.<\/p>\n

Monographs on photographers, museum and academic studies were rarities before the 1980s. A rich array of online resources<\/a> and publications now exist.<\/p>\n

In parallel to the photo-history publications, photobooks as a genre of contemporary practice<\/a> have emerged as a significant genre as have studies of exhibitions and picture magazines in recent decades.<\/p>\n

The role of Australian photo-history books could do with some more research. Therefore, I am now considering building on my 1976 original essay and investigating the feasibility of putting together a timeline about the evolution of Australian photohistory through books and magazines.<\/p>\n

I see the first question will be which publications were the first to present retrospective accounts of early photographers and the role of the medium.<\/p>\n

Work to be done \u2013 a new challenge. Watch this space.<\/p>\n
