Photography not only contributed to the development of disciplinary (archaeology, ethnography, anthropology) collections and popular archives but also aided their visibility through the mechanical reproduction of images (Benjamin, 1935), brought about by new media technologies (print, television, and now the internet). On the other hand, collage practices, from the early photomontages to the surrealist phonograms, are associated with breaking dominant conventions and the radical potential of transforming the ways of seeing.
