Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the intersection of photography and war, this book delves into the roles of iconic photographers like Hilla Becher and Don McCullin, presenting them as conceptual figures within a chaotic landscape. It critiques traditional narratives through the lens of Michael Herr's Vietnam War memoir, emphasizing the disconnection between images and reality. The text examines the implications of surveillance and the influence of figures like William Burroughs, suggesting that photography acts as a disruptive force, revealing deeper, often unsettling truths about human experience and mediation in an indifferent world.
