Photography to the Test of Abstraction erforscht die vielfältigen Facetten des Begriffs der Abstraktion im Bereich der zeitgenössischen Fotografie. Basierend auf einer eingehenden Analyse der Werke und Texte von Historikern, identifiziert das Buch die Herausforderungen dieser Praxis und plädiert für eine Neubetrachtung der Prämissen der Fotografie mit all ihren wissenschaftlichen Aspekten und jüngsten technologischen Entwicklungen. Hier treffen renommierte Künstler wie Stan Douglas, Zoe Leonard, Thomas Ruff und Barbara Kasten auf Fotografen der jüngeren Generation wie Laure Tiberghien, Sebastian Riemer, Anouk Kruithof oder Hannah Whitaker und nehmen an der Entfaltung eines erfinderischen und fesselnden visuellen Universums teil.
