Photography has evolved from the materiality
of silver gelatin to the virtuality of Computer-Generated-Images
(CGI). This essay
is an analysis of three artworks that use
different formats of photographic archives.
Gerhard Richter’s Atlas (ongoing project) is
made up of physical material, Jon Rafman’s
9-Eyes (ongoing project) is composed of digital
images from Google Street View, and
Roc Herms’s Postcards from Home (2016)
uses 3D images taken from the platform
Home of PlayStation 3. The research method
is two-pronged: on the one hand, I identify
the similarities and the differences of how
these works were conceived in the artists’
minds; and on the other hand, I examine
how the medium has changed in each one.
The purpose of the investigation is to define
concepts like identity, objectivity, truth, and
reality in analog photography, digital photography
and virtual photography
