Photographies East The camera in East and SE Asia
Azië, impact fotografie MORRIS,R.C.[ed.], Photographies East The Camera and Its histories in East and Southeast Asia, Durham 2009.
Softcover 18 x 25,5 cm. 314 pag. met 60 afb.
"In this collection, scholars of Asia, most of whom are anthropologists, describe frequent attribution of spectral powers to the camera, first brought to Asia by colonialists, as they examine the transformations precipitated or accelerated by the spread of photography across East and Southeast Asia. In essays resonating across theoretical, historical, and geopolitical lines, they engage with photography in China, Japan, Taiwan, and Thailand, and on the islands of Aru, Aceh, and Java in what is now Indonesia.
The contributors analyze how in specific cultural and historical contexts, the camera has affected experiences of time and subjectivity, practices of ritual and tradition, and understandings of death. They highlight the links between photography and power, looking at how the camera has figured in the operations of colonialism, the development of nationalism, the transformation of monarchy, and the militarization of violence. Moving beyond a consideration of historical function or effect, the contributors also explore the forms of illumination and revelation for which the camera has offered itself as instrument and symbol. And they trace the emergent forms of alienation and spectralization, as well as the new kinds of fetishism, that photography has brought in its wake. Taken together, the essays chart a bravely interdisciplinary path to visual studies, one that places the particular knowledge of a historicized anthropology in a comparative frame and in conversation with aesthetics and art history."

Re-orientations Photography from South Asia 1845-1920
Zuidoost Azië, oude fotografie Alkazi Collection, Re-orientations Photography from South Asia 1845-1920. Booklet / brochure ter gelegenheid van een tentoonstelling in 1999. Softcover 15 x 23 cm. 24 pag. met 8 afb.
"Queen Victoria was fascinated by the jewel in her crown, and so were her subjects. She hired Indian servants, one of whom became quite influential. Photographs show the Queen at table with Indian manservants standing by, looking suitably foreign and imposing; pictures of the Queen being served by representatives of her largest colony must have been a matter of some pride to the populace. She also sent British artists abroad to paint the newest members of her realm. But photography was the great recorder of the age and the medium of choice in a land that not only entranced and enriched the British but also bewildered them by never being quite what it seemed. Britons, other foreigners and large numbers of Indians all hastened to register India's astonishing variety and explore the countries at its borders. Photography reached India less than a year after its invention in 1839."
