Co starego w fotografii? Czyli kilka uwag o hamulcach praktyk wizualnych
What Is Old in Photography? Several Thought on the Limits of Visual Arts

Summary/Abstract: The paper is based on two research and artistic projects focusing on social aspects of photography. It describes “conservatism of photography” – habits opposing new usages and interpretations of pictures – in two ways. First, it applies to everyday amateur practices – using cameras, creating, sharing, watching and archiving pictures. Second, it refers to the conservatism of scholars and some research trends in visual sociology and anthropology.
