Hello,
"...Mêlant photographie documentaire et artistique, portraits et paysages, le collectif nous entraîne dans un ensemble géographique abstrait qui devient prétexte à questionner les idées de faire culture et de faire société."
For more context, please take a look at the link below:
https://www.becair.com/produit/dici-ca-ne-parait-pas-si-loin...
does this just mean to "make/create a culture"
this isn't clear to me.
Thank you
Louisa.

Cultural production

"Cultural production is deeply embedded in social networks at the individual, group, industry, and place level. These networks affect production of ideas as well as the production of cultural products and the ability of those products to reach an audience."

To better understand the fact that this is an expression with a particular philosophical meaning, I suggest you consult https://www.cairn.info/revue-tous-urbains-2015-2-page-10.htm... which discusses the term "faire société".
I think that "shaping culture" is not at all what is meant here.

cultural norms
Agree with BD that faire société is a specific term, though I suspect it's one of those ideas in the water, so to speak, and bandied about without anybody really knowing—or agreeing—what it means. Same goes for faire culture and faire just about anything, I guess.
The term seems to be used in a negative way in the ST, so I'm guessing the photobook is meant to question commonly held ideas or biases about people, society and culture. "Norm" isn't quite right, as it's often used in a positive sense, but maybe it will prompt a better option.

Example sentence:
Blending documentary and artistic photography of people and places, it draws us into an abstract geography, causing us to question social and cultural norms.
Part documentary, part art exhibition, its photographs of people and places draw us into an abstract geography and cause us to question social and cultural norms.
