ISBN: 9788085739558
Description: Bratislava: Central European House of Photography, 2010. 2 vols. 31cm., hardcover, 699, XCI pp., both volumes illus. English text. Summary: This is the first complete encyclopedia on ‘The History of European Photography (1900-2000)’, an international participatory research project of a pan-European size divided into three volumes and periods: •Volume 1, 1900-1938; •Volume 2, 1939-1969; •Volume 3, 1970-2000. Each volume of the encyclopedia is organized alphabetically by countries – 35 countries altogether – and each country’s photographic history is written by an expert in the field. Apart of the main chapters, each book will contain rich additional material, such as biographies of photographers, timetables of cultural, political and photographic events in each country and maps. Indexes of each book will be of two kinds, indexes of photographers and indexes of historical names and subjects. While all existing publications on this topic focus only on leading countries in European photography, such as France, Great Britain or Germany, omitting more than half of the continent, we are offering a complete overview of photography development in the 20th century from Iceland to Russia and from Scandinavia to Moldavia .
