Assaf Shaham: New Ways to Steal Old Souls

The Constantiner Photography Award for an Israeli Artist, 2012

Assaf Shaham (b. 1983, Jerusalem) deals with photography and its mechanisms; he examines the way photography is perceived, subverts the prevalent view centering on the photographed object, and brings to the front the taken-for-granted act of photography. Shaham deconstructs and foils basic and sophisticated tools for creating and processing images, and juxtaposes concepts of early photography with digital manipulations, exposing their clumsiness.
