Book excerpt: For its 14th edition, Le Mois de la Photo à Montréal has produced a major reference book, edited by Joan Fontcuberta and illustrated with the works of the 29 artists exhibited in this international biennial of the contemporary image.Leading experts in the field critically investigate the post-photographic condition, exploring communication and transmission of data in cyberspace, the boundaries of virtual reality, as well as the Internet as a new public space in which the proliferation of images reflect and shape the world.This publication challenges us to re-examine what photography is today.Published alongside the exhibition, with 29 artists presented in 15 venues across Montreal (10 September - 11 October 2015).
