How can the historical narratives of photography be told such that they are not limited to

photographic images but give serious consideration to the different ways in which these images

are transformed into other visual media? Photo historian Geoffrey Batchen argues the case for

a new media history of early modernism that focuses on the migration and dissemination of

photographs and goes far beyond photography. His study is a fascinating attempt to track the

diverse ways in which photographic images have migrated, delineating a dynamic visual culture

and in the process creating a history of photography in an intermedial context. Batchen shows

that this history has invariably been one of media transformation.



Geoffrey Batchen, b. 1956 in Melbourne, professor for art history at the University of Oxford.
