Abstract
This commissioned in-conversation piece for the Photoworks Annual 21 on the theme of Collaboration brought Annebella Pollen and Juliet Baillie together to discuss community and collectivity in photographic history. Debating a range of periods and practices from interwar camera clubs and photographic fund raisers in the 1980s to mass-participation media projects in the present day, the eight page illustrated debate showed the complexity of amateur photography as a category, and the way its study can contribute to wider debates on In social and cultural history, including democracy, identity, competition and leisure.
