- W34727881 abstract "War images are selected for their performativity, the momentary concentration of relationship and the indelibility of their effect. For example, the girl running down the M1 in Vietnam, the baby crying amidst burning rubble in Shanghai, or the more recent collapsing of the twin towers in New York, are all images which have left irreversible impressions in millions of viewers. A more recent example of this is the photograph of the statue of Saddam Hussein being pulled down in Iraq in the early stages of the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003. Such images impose themselves upon our bodies through the sheer strength of their visceral, apparently unmediated impact, although it is often the case that, rather than capturing, in their purity, ‘real’ events, such images are self-consciously constructed. Allegorical as well as specific, these images are chosen for their compression of significant broader meanings through a relationship within a single frame. As Susan Sontag concludes from her discussion of the cases of the Battle of Iwo Jima, the American Civil War and the First World War in her last book Regarding the Pain of Others, the making of these images are more complex than the factual reflection of an event (2003, 54-7)." @default.
