Duke University Press · United States
Aims & Scope
Trans Asia Photography is an international, refereed, open-access journal based at the University of Toronto. It provides a venue for the interdisciplinary exploration of photography and Asia, broadly conceived as a geography, network, and cultural imaginary. Bridging photography and area studies, TAP promotes scholarship at the intersections of photography studies, Asian studies, transpacific critique, visual studies, art history, diaspora studies, cultural studies, and history. By centering photographic practices beyond Euro-American frameworks, the journal foregrounds different ways of seeing and knowing, and rethinks transnational and transcultural approaches to the histories and theories of photography.
