About the book >.>.> Luigi Gariglio: Portraits in Prisons by Bas Vroege explores the intricate nature of photographic portraiture, highlighting its significance in both public and private spheres. The book delves into how photography surpassed traditional painting in the 19th century, adopting responsibilities such as identity confirmation and emotional evocation through memory preservation. Various subgenres of portraiture, from glamour symbols to sociological documents, are examined in relation to differing camera techniques, lighting, and presentation styles. Vroege contextualises the evolution of photographic portraits, tracing their journey from 19th-century daguerreotypes kept in velvet-lined boxes to official portraits displayed by authoritarian regimes, and their appearances in contemporary media. The impact of presentation on viewer perception and theme shifts is discussed, pointing out that the medium of photography inherently ties back to its subject. The book notes that photo portraits only emerged as subjects of artistic discourse post-World War II, a transformation influenced significantly by Andy Warhol, who intertwines identity, representation, and voyeurism in his work, using both photography and film.
