New Audience / New Format

Even though Fine Art Photography has been considered since the modern era as a concept for museums exhibitions and precious books, photography has been mainly dedicated to exist in mass media as a projectile or a collective mental object.

Artist such as Ed Ruscha (Royal Road Test, On the Sunset Strip), or more recently Martin Parr, took the printed medium for a perfect format to develop concepts or statements.

Since the raise of simultaneity and ubiquity of information, photography had to invent a new language to be pertinent and to exist. Internet is now providing a new space for new practices.

In parallel to specialized photography press like FOAMCamera Austria or Aperture and museum catalogues, the dematerialization of the support have been creating with its viral and ubiquity effect a new ecology between the photographer and his audience.
