Failed Images approaches photography in terms of its divergence from the reality it would claim to show. How does the photograph transform that which exists before the camera? A variety of factors influence the way photography constructs its images—not only the technical features of the medium, but also the conventions that have sprung up within it, governing the field from the most formal portraits to the quickest "snapshots."
Combining cultural theory with many case studies, Failed Images offers a different approach to photography, celebrating the medium's range of possible modes of image-making. In this book the photographic image is explored through what might seem to be its outliers—photographic practices that resist the presumed dominant approaches to the medium. These counter-practices include staged photography, blurred photography, archival photography, and under- and overexposed photography.

Failed Images tries to understand photography in its difference from the reality it shows. It sets as a task to analyse the different ways the photograph transforms that which exists before the camera. Photography is not only determined by technical features, but also by a conventional approach to it. This approach can be recognized in what is now called a ‘snapshot’. But the photographic medium enables also very different practices and as a result very different kinds of photographic images. To see this, one needs to look at the diversity of photographic images and practices outside the dominant approach. In this book the photographic image will be explored by focusing on photographic practices refusing the dominant approach to the medium, namely staged photography, blurred photography, under- en overexposed photography and archival photography.
Failed Images probeert fotografie te begrijpen als een medium dat de realiteit transformeert. Het boek analyseert verschillende manieren waarop een foto die transformatie activeert. De mogelijkheden van de fotografie worden niet alleen bepaald door technische kenmerken, maar ook door de gangbare benaderingen van het medium, waarbij de ‘snapshot’ dominant is. Maar er zijn veel verschillende benaderingen mogelijk, en dus ook veel verschillende soorten fotografische beelden.
Om dit te kunnen zien, kan men kijken naar de diversiteit aan fotografische praktijken buiten de dominante benadering van het medium. Dit boek onderzoekt de betekenis van het fotografische beeld aan de hand van praktijken die de conventionele benadering van de hand wijzen, en duikt in geënsceneerde fotografie, wazige fotografie, onder- en overbelichte fotografie en archieffotografie.
