Printed Photography in Venezuela/ Fotografía Impresa en Venezuela
"'Printed photography in Venezuela' provides a comprehensive inventory of photographically illustrated books published in Venezuela from 1945 to 2017. The research attempts to trace the history of the illustrated book with photographs examining the relationship between photography, literature, graphic design and editing; that is the coexistence of these disciplines in books ... this publication seeks to clarify the directionality of meaning proposed in illustrated books with photography, coffee table books, magazines, brochures, catalogues, posters and photobooks. With this purpose, the book explores subjects through of political, social, artistic ideologies, and also ideas of nation embodied in the corporate or authorial initiatives that shaped them. PRINTED PHOTOGRAPHY IN VENEZUELA presents in short, a transversal and multiple reading that points to the assessment of the work as a whole and to make visible and make the book tangible."--Author's website.
