Administrative or Biographical history
The status of photography as art is interpreted and passed on through different art history, social history and cultural history of each country in each region. Liz Wells once states that the tension between the photograph as document and the personal expressivity of art has been at the heart of debates as to the status of photographer as art since 19th and 20th century. There are also debates in definition and conclusion in each context. In Western art, the debates never end but they depart to another territory including Southeast Asia, a sub-region of Asia with most intense cultural diversity. Therefore, there are diverse details of ‘thingness’ in photography that are beyond the common significance of photography as visual communication. ‘things’ in this region can be seen as similarity and difference. Within this region, there are light layers among them interchanging between similarity and difference.
