| Zusammenfassung: | Introduction: Show and Tell -- The Idea of Album -- The Album as Collection -- Memoirs and Travelogues -- The Idea of Family -- Orality and Photography -- Photographs,1916-945 -- Conclusion: Remembering to Tell -- Appendix 1: A Note on the Photographic Collections at the McCord Museum of Canadian History -- Appendix 2: The Photographic Albums Illustrated in the Text. "In Suspended Conversations Martha Langford breathes life into photographic albums. These travelogues, memoirs, thematic collections, and family sagas embody the intimate preoccupations of their compilers and the great events of a golden photographic age, 1860 to 1960. Langford also traces the influence of photograph albums on the installations, photo narratives, and photo sequences of contemporary artists. Whether dealing with art, museum archives, or the family heirloom, Suspended Conversations bring photography into the great conversation about how we remember our stories and send them into the future."--Jacket |
