| Course Description | This course explores the photobook as a central medium of lens-based contemporary art practice and bookmaking. You will be exposed to a variety of geographies (Japan, USA, Europe, Latin America, Africa), approaches (formal book, luxury volume, grassroots zine, national archive, art object), subject matters (autobiography, fiction, historical, journalism, epic events), and materials. Using Columbia’s world-famous library holdings, many photo and art books and a diverse range of viewpoints will be studied through historical lectures and New York City field trips. Students will learn hands-on processes of photobook and fanzine making. |
