Natasha Chuk. Photo Obscura: The Photographic in Post-Photography. Bristol\/Chicago: Intellect, 2025. 198 pages.<\/p>\n

Drawing on photo history, media studies, visual studies, art history, and the digital humanities, Photo Obscura argues that the profound transformation of post-photography is not merely a trend but a significant movement that redefines photography by integrating it with emerging technologies and creative practices, resulting in works that may not even resemble photographs but still retain a photographic influence. It is structured around various themes, including AI-generated images, the intersection of digital and physical art forms, and the changing relationship between visual representation and perception with in-depth discussions of artworks by Richard A. Carter, Stephanie Dinkins, Snow Yunxue Fu, Carla Gannis, Pascal Greco, Claudia Hart, Auriea Harvey, Sophie Kahn, Ida Kvetny, Lev Manovich, Maria Mavropoulou, Rosa Menkman, Colette Robbins, Penelope Umbrico, and Diana Velasco.<\/p>\n
