Book Synopsis Disaster Drawn by : Hillary L. Chute
Download or read book Disaster Drawn written by Hillary L. Chute and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-12 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In hard-hitting accounts of Auschwitz, Bosnia, Palestine, and Hiroshima’s Ground Zero, comics display a stunning capacity to bear witness to trauma. Investigating how hand-drawn comics has come of age as a serious medium for engaging history, Disaster Drawn explores the ways graphic narratives by diverse artists, including Jacques Callot, Francisco Goya, Keiji Nakazawa, Art Spiegelman, and Joe Sacco, document the disasters of war. Hillary L. Chute traces how comics inherited graphic print traditions and innovations from the seventeenth century and later, pointing out that at every turn new forms of visual-verbal representation have arisen in response to the turmoil of war. Modern nonfiction comics emerged from the shattering experience of World War II, developing in the 1970s with Art Spiegelman’s first “Maus” story about his immigrant family’s survival of Nazi death camps and with Hiroshima survivor Keiji Nakazawa’s inaugural work of “atomic bomb manga,” the comic book Ore Wa Mita (“I Saw It”)—a title that alludes to Goya’s famous Disasters of War etchings. Chute explains how the form of comics—its collection of frames—lends itself to historical narrative. By interlacing multiple temporalities over the space of the page or panel, comics can place pressure on conventional notions of causality. Aggregating and accumulating frames of information, comics calls attention to itself as evidence. Disaster Drawn demonstrates why, even in the era of photography and film, people understand hand-drawn images to be among the most powerful forms of historical witness.
Download or read book By Now written by Matthias Harder and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The individual photographs and groups of works were selected from a variety of submissions and range from classic black-and-white portraits to flashy Photoshop experiments. The focus of artistic interest is always on human subjects in diverse everyday situations, whether sunbathing on the town beach in their spare time, enjoying a breakfast break at a bus station, or as proud war veterans. The pictures paint a timeless and contemporary picture of life in Belarus rather than offering a representative portrayal of day-to-day realities, sometimes with documentary intention, and at other times with an ironic twist. World War II and the defeat of the German occupiers is evidently still today an important "official" theme for Belarusian society, a fact that is visually commented on by the alternative art scene. Hardly any of these images have been published or exhibited to date. 0Exhibition: Photofestival Lodz, Polen (6.-16.6.2013) / ifa Galerie Berlin, Germany (Autumn 2014).

Book excerpt: A photo-series made up of 65 works which explore how lost and forgotten objects have a tendency to then re-appear in specific places, taking on a life of their own. Backhaus has succeeded in capturing motifs that exude both a sense of the enigmatic and the sublime. The readers gaze is tranfixed as they unravel the mystery of what makes these banal objects hold such intrigue. Reminiscent of still-lifes and yet accidental in their compostion, Backhaus turns the arbitary and organic into palpable frames.

Book Synopsis Geographical Aesthetics by : Elizabeth Straughan
Download or read book Geographical Aesthetics written by Elizabeth Straughan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geographical Aesthetics places the terms 'aesthetics' and 'geography' under critical question together, responding both to the increasing calls from within geography to develop a 'geographical aesthetics', and a resurgence of interdisciplinary interest in conceptual and empirical questions around geoaesthetics, environmental aesthetics, as well as the spatialities of the aesthetic. Despite taking up an identifiable role within the geographical imagination and sensibilities for centuries, and having what is arguably a key place in the making of the modern discipline, aesthetics remains a relatively under-theorized field within geography. Across 15 chapters Geographical Aesthetics brings together timely commentaries by international, interdisciplinary scholars to rework historical relations between geography and aesthetics, and reconsider how it is we might understand aesthetics. In renewing aesthetics as a site of investigation, but also an analytic object through which we can think about worldly encounters, Geographical Aesthetics presents a reworking of our geographical imaginary of the aesthetic.

Download or read book Still Lovers written by Elena Dorfman and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Still Lovers, Elena Dorfman explores the complex relationships between life-sized, synthetic sex dolls and their owners. For many, the idea of the sex doll conjures images of the kitschy inflatable, but these expensive, highly realistic dolls, which owners customize to the smallest detail, are far from silly, and they' perform more than a sexual role for their owners. What started for Dorfman in 1999 as a playful curiosity - a project about "men having sex with 125 pounds of perfectly formed synthetic female" - rapidly became a serious exploration of the emotional and psychological ties between the owners and their dolls. Her candid wonderment and nonjudgmental approach present a fascinating glimpse into the personalities that owners invest in their dolls and the zest with which they attire them. The dolls become sculptural beauties, sex kittens, companions, and family members. One woman owns several dolls that represent different aspects of her personality and sexuality; another owner, a military officer, dreams of marrying his "Azra." A suburban owner drinks coffee on the couch as "Taffy" lounges nearby in her crotchless negligee. A family goes about their morning routine with "Valentine" at the kitchen table. Dorfman's deft treatment of the subject and neutral color palate keep the images firmly grounded in a documentary tradition that depicts the subjects outside of the visual schema associated with fantasy. The result is that we as viewers - though we know the dolls to be passive and inanimate - begin to believe in the owners' vision of and love for their dolls. Dorfman's images confront the concept of the ideal woman and her place in the home, and they challenge our notions of love while they show the imagination's powerful function in achieving and sustaining it."--BOOK JACKET.
Book Synopsis Buzzing at the Sill by : Peter Van Agtmael
Download or read book Buzzing at the Sill written by Peter Van Agtmael and published by Kehrer Verlag. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buzzing at the Sill is Peter van Agtmael's work about coming home from years of covering war in Iraq and Afghanistan and trying to understand his experiences and his country. A student of history at Yale during the September 11 attacks and the invasion of Iraq, his sheltered life was uprooted by the realisation that he needed to cover the wars. The work is a stew of reflections on war, memory, militarism, identity, race, class, family, surrealism and the landscape. It is both about the limitations of photography and an homage to its power.
