"fine study...This is the first full length examination of mass-participation photographic projects. It is to be applauded not only for that but also for its qualities of analysis and assessment, perspective and perception, and sustained appraisal of this distinctive application of amateur practice."
--European Journal of Communication"Pollen establishes the academic significance of mass photography, challenging a continuing tendency to dismiss domestic and amateur photography as banal and trite... The book's substantive focus makes it particularly valuable for researchers and students interested in mass-participation projects and vernacular photography past and present. Nonetheless, Pollen's nuanced and informed analysis of key themes has much to offer a broader constituency of researchers and students of visual culture... In Mass Photography, Pollen presents an illuminating study that grapples with the significance of mass-photography projects and that takes seriously amateur photography and the people who engage in it."

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. With increasingly accessible camera technology, crowdsourced public media projects abound like never before. Such projects often seek to secure a snapshot of a single day in order to establish communities and create visual time capsules for the future. Mass Photography: Collective Histories of Everyday Life assesses the potential of these popular moment-in-time projects by examining their current day prevalence and their historical predecessors. Through archival research and interviews with organisers and participants, it examines, for the first time, the vast photographic collections resulting from such projects, analysing their structures and systems, their aims and objectives, and their claims and promises. The central case study is the 55,000 photographs submitted to One Day for Life in 1987, which aimed, in its own time, to be the biggest photographic event the world had ever seen. With increasingly accessible camera technology, crowdsourced public media projects abound like never before Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
