Since 1980, the magazine Camera Austria International has been providing its readers with insights into important discourses on the role of photography as a medium and practice of contemporary art—presenting outstanding artists who have made extraordinary contributions to the continual development of the medium. The magazine is not primarily engaged with topicality but also makes materials available that, as part of long-term and sustainable discourse, also retains significance after the fact as source material. Over the years, this has resulted in an—at times surprising—archive and reference body on contemporary photography.

Still posed at the heart of this bilingual (ger./eng.) quarterly are the monographic contributions about artists whose work is decisive in defining a current perspective on photography. This is accompanied by the Forum section, which introduces—often in cooperation with curators, writers, or artists—remarkable positions by young international artists who are not yet well known but already display a unique profile. The profile of the magazine is rounded off by a tailored overview of current international exhibitions and recently published books.

Once a year, Camera Austria International departs from the classical structure of the magazine in order to invite artists to guest edit an issue of the magazine, and in this framework to probe a theme of artistic and theoretical focus.

Último número:

Camera Austria has long shared an enduring and multifarious connection with the artist Karina Nimmerfall. In 2018, her exhibition Indirect Interviews with Women, curated by Reinhard Braun, was shown in Graz; and, in 2020, we presented her work in issue no. 152 through a monographic contribution. What is more, four of her artist books were published in the Edition Camera Austria; and, not least, as a board member she has helped to define the work of our association for many years. It thus seemed natural to move our year-long content-related exchange on (photographic) images into the magazine format, and to invite her to serve as guest editor for Camera Austria International no. 174, in which we explore together under the title “After the Index” how the relationship between photography and computer-generated imagery plays out and what potentials indwell this relationship.
