Photography: Journals & Magazines

Journals & Magazines

Journals and Magazines

The Library subscribes to a range of specialist publications, providing research sources that your course will expect you to engage with.

Digital and Physical

Publications are available online (eJournals) or in print form in the Library. You can access some publications in both online and print form.

Academic and Non-academic

Academic journals contain content that is written by academics. They are often peer-reviewed and assessed to be fit for publication by other academics within your discipline. 

Non-academic publications are not usually written by academics and are often focused on professional practice.

Full text or Abstract

Full text articles allows you to read them in full, much like an eBook, so you are reading the text on screen in its entirety, as it was printed in the journal/magazine.

Abstracts are a brief description of the article and wont always allow you to read the article in full text.

If you can cannot access an article, you can request an inter-library loan.

Database: Art and Architecture Source

Journal : Aperture

Article: Fujii M. (2020). Fumi Ishino: Home is Somewhere Else. Aperture. (238):64-71.

Abstract: The article offers information related to the works of Japanese photographer Fumi Ishino and mentions about his works like book "Loom" which contains collection of photographs taken entirely in Japan.

'This slight but powerful sense of unease suffuses Ishino’s images, that of witnessing the familiar transform into the strange.'
