Description: Photography Between Poetry and Politics: The Critical Position of the Photographic Medium in Contemporary Art (Lieven Gevaert Series) [Paperback] Van Gelder, Hilde and Westgeest, Helen Product Overview Lieven Gevaert Series 7Does photography have a hybrid or chameleonic character because it can be part of entirely different mixed-media works of art?
