Description: "[Title] is the official publication of the 12th presentation of Le Mois de la Photo à Montréal. In this lavishly illustrated book, guest curator Anne- Marie Ninacs introduces the twenty-five artists whose works are exhibited in this international biennale of contemporary photography. The publication also features new essays by philosophers and art historians, and theorists of visual culture, who shed light on the relationships between photography and lucidity. The artisits presented here in a way turn their cameras towards themselves and concieve of lens-based arts as an introspective process, an opportunity for meditation, a mode of consciousness, even as a means of revealing the unconcious. At a time when misery in the world is multiplying, the movement toward a form of photography that seeks to reveal the invisible conflicts and traces of wisdom within ourselves seems urgent. This book humbly cultivates the hope that such photography can give us all a bit of the 'clarity of mind' that is the psychological meaning given by the modern world to the term lucidity."--Publisher's website.
