LIGUORI 2001 596 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO, VOLUME INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO, PERFETTO. Il testo si caratterizza come un lavoro al contempo storicoe teorico. Storico: in quanto ripercorre alcune delle tappe edei temi fondamentali che hanno attraversato la storia della fotografia nel XX secolo (dalla fotografia sociale al reportage), mettendo in luce il valore delle singole pratiche fotografiche in rapporto agli eventi storici,sociali e politici, nonché alla sensibilità e al gusto del tempo. Teorico:in quanto si è posto l'obiettivo di tematizzare i grandi problemi che stanno a fondamento della fotografia come fatto di cultura in un'epoca come la nostra in cui l'immagine ha assunto un ruolo di grande rilievo nell'esistenza di ognuno di noi. La politica, la guerra, i fenomeni di moda, l'erotismo: cosa sarebbero questi significativi settori della storia e dell'esistenza senza l'immagine riproducibile, senza la fotografia, il cinema, la televisione? La planetarizzazione di tali ambiti, nel senso soprattutto delle conoscenze che abbiamo delle loro specificità o dei comportamenti da noi adottati nella pratica, dipende, in modo determinante, dal ruolo svolto dall'immagine, dalla sua capacità di mettere tutto alla portata di tutti, di far conoscere la maggior parte di cose al maggior numero possibile di individui.
