Not all pictures are photographs, but all photographs are PICTURES.
Today, in our daily lives, photographs can be seen almost anywhere; PICTURES shows that photographs can also be almost anything.
Sight Unseen says ”PICTURES celebrates photography not for the referential images it can capture, but for the possibilities of the medium in and of itself."
Dale Hrabi, editor of WSJ: Off Duty says "PICTURES contains amazing, how’d-they-do-that examples on non-representational photography."
The first book from There., PICTURES presents luminous photography that re-envisions the photographic image.
