Inventing Reality includes an introductory essay by Bookhardt detailing the rich history of photographic arts in New Orleans. The array of photographic practices featured within ranges from wet-plate collodions, orotones, photogravures, x-rays, and silver gelatins, to modern digital processes. Russell Lord writes in the book’s foreword: “It is a story about identity, tension, perception and the psychic mystery of photography in New Orleans.”
