Visuality and Anthropology: Drawings, Painting, Photography, and Movie

Original language description

Drawing, painting, photography, and film footage are important research tools in social and cultural anthropology. In this chapter, the author analyzes the historical development of selected visual research tools used in anthropological fieldwork. He describes their purposes and the differences in how these means of visual representation are used. He puts special focus on photography and drawing. Film and photography have generally been considered evidence and an objective record of ethnographic reality, while drawings and paintings are now mostly used as tools enabling researchers to study particular thematic areas of cultural psychology.
