Afterimage: Photography in the Digital Age - Exhibition Catalogue (Pre-order)

Published to accompany the exhibition Afterimage: Photography in the Digital Age at Photo Museum Ireland, this catalogue brings together a selection of cutting-edge work by Irish and international artists exploring the material and conceptual transformations that have profoundly altered our sense of what a photograph is and can be. 

Digital technology has transformed how we encounter and understand photography. From the ubiquity of smartphone cameras and image-sharing apps to the reality-bending potential of AI, the ways in which a photographic image can be made and manipulated have increased exponentially.

The exhibition focuses on the creative possibilities of new technology and its application to photography as part of challenging hybrid practices that embrace a range of visual media. In a culture saturated with images and information, never offline, data has become a potent aesthetic resource for artists to draw on. From Ailbhe Ní Bhriain's haunting archival interventions, to the screen-based mediation of Linn Phyllis Seeger's personal narratives, and Michael Schäfer's large-scale digital montages, the works in Afterimage chart the multiple, diverse ways a photographic image can now exist. 

Exhibiting Artists: 

Alan Butler, Ailbhe Ní Bhriain, Luke van Gelderen, Gregory Eddi Jones, Maria Mavropoulou, Alan Phelan, Michael Schäfer, Linn Phyllis Seeger

Afterimage: Photography in the Digital Age runs at Photo Museum Ireland from July 11 - August 23. Curated by Darren Campion. 

A Photo Museum Ireland National Tour, presented in partnership with The Dock, Carrick-on-Shannon, and Uillinn: West Cork Arts Centre, Skibbereen, supported by an Arts Council Touring Award. 
With thanks to all the participating artists, and Green on Red Gallery, Molesworth Gallery, and Kerlin Gallery for facilitating loans to the exhibition.
