Stan Douglas – Hasselblad Award 2016
“Often people confuse photography with human vision but they’re very different things”, says Canadian artist Stan Douglas, winner of the 2016 Hasselblad Foundation International Award in Photography. “[What] happens to our sense of our selves, our sense of time when so much of our knowledge about the world comes through these mechanical media, these inhuman media?” Attending to such questions, The Hasselblad Award 2016, which presents three series entitled Night (2014–15), Corrupt Files (2013) and DCTs (2016), accompanied by two texts, offers intricate meditations on the function, construction and consumption of contemporary forms of photography. From HD cinematic images to abstract manifestations of data, each series probes the relationship between human and mechanical memory, each employing a particular synthetic process supported, if not entirely constructed, by computer software. Published by MACK (London) and Hasselblad Foundation (Stockholm).
116 pages, 24 x 27 cm, hardcover, MACK (London) and Hasselblad Foundation (Stockholm).
