“A small book of photography theory”

“A small book of photography theory” is the first comprehensive collection of texts on photo theory in Estonian language, which includes texts from the beginning of the 20th century to the present day by 18 authors: László Moholy-Nagy, Siegfried Kracauer, Walter Benjamin, André Bazin, Roland Barthes, Pierre Bourdieu, Laura Mulvey, Peter Wollen , Joel Snyder, Rosalind Krauss, Christian Metz, John Tagg, David Bate, W.J.T. Mitchell, Hito Steyerl, Jacques Rancière, Ariella Azoulay, and Trevor Paglen. Through these different (and sometimes contradictory) authors, the aim is not to promote one clear-cut vision of photography, but, on the contrary, to draw attention to the diversity of photography discourse, its different origins and goals during the more than century-long varied development of the theoretical field.
