포토북의 물성적 구조에 따른 특성 연구 - 전시기획<As a Structure> 을 위한 자료조사를 중심으로-

Abstract

This essay aims to propose the possibilities that photobook can be developed as an experimental space as well as a genre of art. The concept is based on an interview with Gerhard Steidl. According to Gerhard Steidl, “A photo book is like building a building.“ Based on research and case studies, this paper offered the exhibition. Research on them was a basic step to broaden its argument as it consisted of a comprehensive notion. Also, we aimed to focus on the issue by visualizing the structural aspects of photobooks in an exhibition based on the case study. The exhibition visualizes with real-life exhibitions in mind built. An overview and contents of the exhibition and the space planning and the flow planning between photobooks were considered. Showing the process of analyzing the features of the book when it comes to displaying, in comparison to the usual display of the work hanging on the wall. Photobooks are a new medium that challenges general book media, and the attempt to examine features through their structural approach is going to surely be an opportunity to gain a broad understanding of photobooks. Throughout these studies, suggestions for an expanded interpretation of photobooks are what are meant to be noted.
