The Photographic II: Signal Or Noise

Exhibition catalogue published in conjunction with "The Photographic II: Signal Or Noise," the second act of a two-part exhibition held at SMAK, Museum of Contemporary Art, Ghent, Belgium from November 10, 2018 to February 10, 2019.

Photographs are often machine-made, and knowledge of the technological developments in this field is essential to reading the images. It is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish between legible, manipulated, and hidden information, all of which are equally important in our visual culture. This book introduces artists who are reconstructing photography as an artistic field of research and experimentation, expressing the functions, processes, and spaces of photography in hybrid forms. These include Tony Cokes, Louise Lawler, Seth Price,Thomas RuffParticipants include photographers and artists such as Sondra Perry, David Horvitz, Hana Miletić, and Forensic Architecture.

The contrast between the catalogue structure and the newspaper-like paper used makes it unique.
