Photography has an adventurous history, with early contributions from French scientists A. Fizeau, and the Russian, A. Grekov for example. The humble name comes from the French term “photographie” based on the Greek words, which interpret ‘paintbrush’ of ‘drawing’. The early beginnings of Daguerreotype period had no lasting effect, as the imaging was too expensive and very difficult to view. The development continued to Calotype method, which had more advantages.
At the end of 40’s the inventor Niepce de Saint-Victor substituted paper negative for starch and egg white layers covered glass. More interested had gathered in this phenomenon of capturing life. The reality that can be shared, gave photography the personification of life. The duplicating of photographs became possible in 1851 by Englishman S. Archer. The founder of Kodak
George Eastman began the production of celluloid film. The explosive art form took of in 1904 with the first color photography plates, produced by the Lumiere Film. Today the photographical sculpture is recognised as a science in art. The documentation, analysis, digitalization and artistic craft that interests both young and old in applied activity. Photography hybridizes the world of reality and sheer fascination. It is this interactivity, which transforms the traditional to postmodern.
