Sažetak
Ethnography is widely accepted method in the field of cultural studies, although was born under the roof of, and is still an identity marker for the discipline of cultural anthropology. Cultural studies embraced the ethnography in effort to deal with the “lived culture” and “whole way of life” but with lot of criticism within and outside the field for its circumvention of abstraction so that the separate elements of lived cultures are not unraveled, and their real complexity is not recognized (Johnson 1996, Nugent 1997). Bringing out a complexity of real world in ethnography is one of the focuses of anthropological theory itself since 1980’s (Clifford and Marcus 1986), and soon afterwards it started to be problematized within the realm of visual ethnography as well (Crawford and Turton 1992, Pink 2001). On this track, the article is dealing with complexities of one of the most questioned notions in humanities and social sciences in the last twenty years – places, and ways of presenting these complexities in visual ethnography.
