Photography And The Art Of Science
Photography and the art of science
Photography and science have a symbiotic relationship; they always have. It was in the context of science that photography was first announced to the public by François Arago in 1839. And it was the rhetoric of observation and objectivity that was so beloved of scientists in the mid-nineteenth century that photography very soon acquired. It was, in fact, photography's close ties to science that hindered its bid to claim fine-art status. It is photography's close and continued ties to science that have also been utilised by artists through the decades, artists who played with the concepts of objectivity, truth, documentary and surveying. The author discusses the unique place that photography has taken up in the art of science and the science of art, dwelling on moments when the two appear to be one and the same, and moments where they appear to diverge. Rather than writing a sort of survey, the paper will dip in at various points in history, looking at the debates from various historical perspectives so as to consider the paradigm ‘art science’ as it has variously been applied to photography. The paper will take up the conflicting rhetorics of passivity and control, mechanical and creative, showing how each is used in its place, but always emphasising the back-and-forth, the give-and-take between science and art. It will be argued that photography's dual nature is exactly what makes it interesting to artists, and what makes it valuable to the sciences.
Fotografi dan seni sains
Fotografi dan sains memiliki hubungan simbiosis; mereka selalu punya. Dalam konteks ilmu pengetahuan, fotografi pertama kali diumumkan kepada publik oleh François Arago pada tahun 1839. Dan retorika observasi dan objektivitas itulah yang begitu disukai para ilmuwan pada pertengahan abad ke-19 sehingga fotografi segera diperoleh. Faktanya, kedekatan fotografi dengan sainslah yang menghambat upayanya untuk mengklaim status seni rupa. Ikatan fotografi yang erat dan berkelanjutan dengan sainslah yang juga telah dimanfaatkan oleh para seniman selama beberapa dekade, para seniman yang bermain-main dengan konsep objektivitas, kebenaran, dokumenter, dan survei. Penulis mendiskusikan tempat unik fotografi dalam seni sains dan sains seni, membahas momen-momen ketika keduanya tampak satu dan sama, dan momen-momen di mana keduanya tampak berbeda. Daripada menulis semacam survei, makalah ini akan menyelami berbagai titik dalam sejarah, melihat perdebatan dari berbagai perspektif sejarah untuk mempertimbangkan paradigma ‘ilmu seni’ yang telah banyak diterapkan pada fotografi. Makalah ini akan membahas retorika pasif dan kontrol yang saling bertentangan, mekanis dan kreatif, menunjukkan bagaimana masing-masing digunakan pada tempatnya, namun selalu menekankan bolak-balik, saling memberi dan menerima antara sains dan seni. Ada argumen bahwa sifat ganda fotografilah yang membuatnya menarik bagi para seniman, dan apa yang membuatnya berharga bagi ilmu pengetahuan.
