Harold Jones

This first monograph to focus on the dynamic and underrecognized practice of 84-year-old artist and educator Harold Jones, Yes to All of It presents a comprehensive look at his experimental oeuvre of "photodrawings"--black-and-white photographic prints that have been drawn on, painted on, "glitterized," or manipulated through other means, challenging the purity of the photographic surface, the conception of photographic space, and the primacy of the Modernist photographic aesthetic. The photographs brim with visual strength and intellectual depth, drawing on Jones's long career engaging with the history of and discourses surrounding photography, including tenures as curator at George Eastman House, director at LIGHT Gallery, founding director for the Center for Creative Photography, and founder of the photography program at University of Arizona, where he taught for thirty years. Co-published by the Center for Creative Photography, this volume includes an essay by photo historian and CCP chief curator Rebecca Senf and a foreword by current CCP director Todd J. Tubutis. The book will also draw on Jones's archive, held at CCP, to map a chronology of his career and making.
