The editors of the Encyclopedia of Twentieth-Century Photography, to be published in 2005 by Routledge, NY are seeking contributing authors from a variety of backgrounds (photography, art and art history, design, cultural studies, theory and criticism, technical, etc.). This richly illustrated, three-volume, scholarly reference work is edited by Lynne Warren, Curator, Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, Illinois. All of the 650 entries (ranging from 1,000 to 5,000 words) will bear contributors’ names, and authors will receive a complimentary encyclopedia set for the first 2,000 words they are commissioned to write).
The Encyclopedia considers the international and interdisciplinary aspects of photography as an art form and discipline. The text--intended to be the authoritative guide to its subject well into the 21st century--covers the aesthetic as well as technical aspects of photography in entries that contextualize and historicize the practice. We encourage submissions from a range of contributors, academic and non-academic. Upper-level graduate students will also be considered. Rolling Deadlines: Summer 2004
