This book is a collection of fierce face child models. Featuring
SFCM Top 50 Fierce Faces as well as 20 finalist.
This book focuses on the theme of counter-surveillance in art
through a multi-faceted engagement with the highly controversial
Norwegian play Ways of Seeing. Denounced by the prime minister and
subject to a police investigation, the play gained notoriety when
it featured footage showing the homes of the country's financial
and political elite as part of its scenography. The book provides a
thorough consideration of the work's reception context before
elucidating its relation to the politics of neoliberalism. What is
foregrounded in this analysis are, first, the use of an aesthetics
of sousveillance to visualize the material infrastructure of racism
and right-wing populism, second, the tangled interrelations of art
and law, third, questions of censorship and artistic freedom, and
fourth, the promotion of an alternative mode of political
governance - grounded in feminism and ecological awareness -
through the example of the Rojava experiment.
This book examines the relationship between words and images in
various life-writing works produced by nineteenth to twenty-first
century American and British women. It addresses the politics of
images in women's life writing, contending that the presence or
absence of images is often strategic. Including a range of
different forms of life writing, chapters draw on traditional
(auto)biographies, travel narratives, memoirs, diaries,
autofiction, cancer narratives, graphic memoirs, artistic
installations, quilts and online performances, as life writing
moves from page to screen and other media. The book explores a wide
range of women who have crossed the boundary between text and
image: painters who have become writers, novelists who have become
painters, writers who hesitate between images and words, models who
seize the camera, and artists who use the frame as a page.
