Assaf Shaham: New Ways to Steal Old Souls

Assaf Shaham deals with photography and its mechanisms; he examines the way photography is perceived, subverts the prevalent view centering on the photographed object, and brings to the front the taken-for-granted act of photography. Shaham deconstructs and foils basic and sophisticated tools for creating and processing images, and juxtaposes concepts of early photography with digital manipulations, exposing their clumsiness. New Ways to Steal Old Souls follows Shaham’s winning of the Cnstantiner Photography Award for an Israeli Artist.
