Description
German photographer and photographic theorist Gottfried J�ger used the term "concrete photography", playing off the term "concrete art", to describe a particular kind of abstract photography. He said:
"Concrete photography does not depict the visible (like realistic or documentary photography);
It does not represent the non-visible (like staged, depictive photography);
It does not take recourse to views (like image-analytical, conceptual, demonstrative photography).
Instead it establishes visibility. It is only visible, the only-visible.
In this way it abandons its media character and gains object character.
