From its beginnings, photography has been shaped by the desire to understand and explore the essence of the medium. This title features the work of seven artists - Alison Rossiter, Marco Breuer, James Welling, Lisa Oppenheim, Chris McCaw, John Chiara, Matthew Brandt - who investigate the possibilities of analog photography by finding innovative, surprising, and sometimes controversial ways to push light-sensitive photographic papers and chemical processing beyond their limits.
