Mere clothing is transformed into desirable fashion by the way it is represented in imagery. Fashion's Double examines how meanings are projected onto garments through their representation, whether in painting, photography, cinema or online fashion film, conveying identity and status, eliciting fascination and desire.
With in-depth case studies including the work of Nick Knight and Helmut Newton, film examples such as The Hunger Games, music video Girl Panic by Duran Duran, and much more, this book analyses the interrelationship between clothing, identity, embodiment, representation and self-representation.
Written for students and scholars alike, Fashion's Double will appeal to anyone studying fashion, cultural studies, art theory and history, photography, sociology, and film.

One minute and thirty seconds is the average length allotted to a news feature. For more than ten years, artist Monika Huber has been photographing images from daily news reports that bear witness to protest, riots, war and violence, as well as their consequences. She saves the images digitally, prints them out and reworks them by means of painting and drawing. Over the years, an archive has been created; it reveals a "grammar" of news images and invites us to examine the crisis reporting of television news in a critical way. This selection of over 100 images from the archive is accompanied by contributions positioning Archive OneThirty from art-historical, philosophical, political-scientific and journalistic perspectives.

War and trauma are fundamental human experiences and central to German history, especially in the twentieth century. Since the First World War, which some Germans celebrated as the chance to annihilate the old culture to make space for a new one, German art has been implicated in war. War and trauma cause extreme conditions that can be negative and destructive, including deprivation or dislocation, and emotional and psychological stress. Paradoxically, war and trauma can also lead to positive outcomes, such as deepening interpersonal relationships, intellectual insights, and new, unforeseen opportunities.
The central concerns of the volume are the multivalent aspects of art that respond to war. It begins by considering art conceived of and executed in response to the First World War on the centennial anniversary of that event. The volume goes on to examine art in the wake of the Holocaust and artistic responses to more recent conflict, such as the Vietnam War. The essays in this volume explore a variety of media - including paintings by Otto Dix and Gerhard Richter, Holocaust photography by Heimrad Backer, and sculpture by Emy Roeder, Gela Forster, and Renee Sintenis - to chart the complex relationship between art and war in both its documentary and analytical functions.

Автор: Hunter Matthew C. Название: Painting with Fire: Sir Joshua Reynolds, Photography, and the Temporally Evolving Chemical Object ISBN: 022639025X ISBN-13(EAN): 9780226390253 Издательство: Wiley Рейтинг: Цена: 46470.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Painting with Fire shows how experiments with chemicals known to change visibly over the course of time transformed British pictorial arts of the long eighteenth century--and how they can alter our conceptions of photography today. As early as the 1670s, experimental philosophers at the Royal Society of London had studied the visual effects of dynamic combustibles. By the 1770s, chemical volatility became central to the ambitious paintings of Sir Joshua Reynolds, premier portraitist and first president of Britain's Royal Academy of Arts. Valued by some critics for changing in time (and thus, for prompting intellectual reflection on the nature of time), Reynolds's unstable chemistry also prompted new techniques of chemical replication among Matthew Boulton, James Watt, and other leading industrialists. In turn, those replicas of chemically decaying academic paintings were rediscovered in the mid-nineteenth century and claimed as origin points in the history of photography.
Tracing the long arc of chemically produced and reproduced art from the 1670s through the 1860s, the book reconsiders early photography by situating it in relationship to Reynolds's replicated paintings and the literal engines of British industry. By following the chemicals, Painting with Fire remaps familiar stories about academic painting and pictorial experiment amid the industrialization of chemical knowledge.
