Picturing cities : the photobook as urban narrative

2024 - Franco Angeli

216 p. : ill.

Includes bibliographical references.

This collection of essays from Europe and the Americas illustrates a broad range of aesthetic attitudes as well as analytical approaches to Western cities expressed through photobooks. The anthology focuses on the photobook as a form of urban narrative: a tool that has been deployed to read, analyse and interpret cities through curated sequences of images. It opens up a multidisciplinary field of research with the potential to expand into further geographical and cultural areas. [Publisher's text]
