Abstract

In search of forms of time representation able to demonstrate its complexity, several recent visual and audiovisual works of art turn to urban daily life as a strategy to reflect on our current experience. From the "Urban Flow" (2006-2013) and "Stainless" (2011-2015) series by the Hungarian artist Adam Magyar, this article intends to observe emerging temporalities seized through hybrid technologies to capture images in the context of cities. Our objective is to reflect on the multiple ways of experiencing time through images today, as well as on the main challenges of photography in the context of contemporary art.
