Abstract: 200-500 words
The author develops a critical analysis of his art photography and its ramifications from 1975 to 2015. The most significant works from this period are examined and documented. The dissertation also examines the main characteristics of the author’s creation and production processes, along with their dynamics and subject matter. The author focuses on the imagery and ideas that inform his production, as well as on further developments prompted by his photography. The ramifications comprise the author’s body of work in electronic art/media art (digital imaging, hypermedia, telecommunications art) and in other media (visual arts, audiovisual production, television). The dissertation emphasizes the interconnection of the author’s art photography with his electronic art and with the question of photographic representation. A chronology of the author's artwork organized by means of expression, a selection of the author's writings, selected essays about the author’s work, and a biographical profile are included as background information. As a supplement, a broad range of works and images are provided in digital format (data CD), stepping up the contents of the printed thesis.
