I began to think about these images and ideas when Sophie Howarth
asked me to give two series of public seminars under the titlePhotography
at the Cinema, at Tate Modern in 2004 and 2006. My thanks to her for
the invitation and to all those who took part.
I am grateful for the conversations about photography and cinema
I have had over the years with David Bate, David Brittain, Victor Burgin,
Shezad Dawood, David Evans, Philippe Garner, David Green, Gavin
Jack, Joanna Lowry, Susan Meiselas, Michael Newman, Francette
Pacteau, Eugénie Shinkle, Stephen Shore, John Stezaker, Abraham
Thomas and Jeff Wall.
Many thanks to all the photographers, filmmakers, artists, galleries,
archives, libraries and agencies that granted permission to reproduce
images. The book was structured around a sequencing of these images
that was intended to function almost in the absence of my text.
Research and production was supported by the British Academy
and the University of Westminster.
For everything else I thank my wife Polly.Acknowledgements
