Aperture 136 - Summer 1994

Metamorphoses: Photography in the Electronic Age

The images in “Metamorphoses” arrive midway into photography’s second century, a period that has seen the creation and obsolescence of dozens of photographic devices, and the rise and fall of as many styles and movements. It is an age that has also witnessed the invention of film, television, and—most importantly for the images reproduced in these pages—computers.
