The Modern Photographic Pocketbook

Refined Version

ByStudio 6x4

The Modern Photographic Pocketbook presents a sequence of square, black and white photographs paired with text generated by Google dictionary boxes. The combination of photographs and text ranges from apt to odd and is designed to create a need, within the mind of the viewer-reader, to interpret, resolve and find meaning in the implied relationships. The sequence builds to an apparent conclusion or end, whilst maintaining a thread of themes and motifs, which often take inspiration from the New Objectivity and New Vision movements of early 20th century photography. The original Modern Photographic Pocketbook (2021), which presented an extended sequence of photographs, has been refined and is available in ebook and print editions from the Lulu Bookstore - go to lulu.com/shop and search for The Modern Photographic Pocketbook. The ebook is free to download and is designed for two-page viewing in a PDF reader. A print copy costs £8.51 GBP ($10.01 USD) plus delivery. A facsimile of the original book can be viewed at sites.google.com/view/studio-6x4/the-modern-photographic-pocketbook.
