THE INTERACTIVE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PHOTOGRAPHY AND REALITY
In an era of confusion, bereft of strong proposals and perspectives, where economic theories contradict each other and the political ideologies have failed, the contemporary photography tries to answer questions concerning today’s reality capturing the mood of the time in all its aspects: aesthetic, conceptual, poetic and philosophical.
The main concept is subject to different approaches, reflecting social and political aspects and issues of vital importance, such as the economical and intellectual crisis, the environmental destruction and the general feeling of isolation and uncertainty.
Simultaneously, at a time in which the image is one of the principal tools of communication and transmission of messages, the terms of interaction and dialectic among the artist, the work of art and the viewer are reconsidered, opening up new narrative and reading ways by adopting non-conventional means and sites of presentation of the contemporary artistic work.
