This is the first genuine appraisal of Virilio's contribution to
contemporary art, photography, film, television and more. Paul
Virilio is one of the leading and most challenging critics of art
and technology of the present period. Re-conceptualising the most
enduring philosophical conventions on everything from technology
and photography to literature, anthropology and cultural and media
studies through his own original theories and arguments, Virilio's
work has produced substantial debate, compelling readers to ask if
his criticism is out of touch or out in front of traditional
perspectives. This collection of 13 original writings, including a
newly translated piece written by Virilio himself, is indispensable
reading for all students and researchers into contemporary visual
culture. Key features: a wide-ranging treatment of Virilio's key
theoretical concepts and themes from across his work on visual
culture so far; surveys Virilio's aesthetics and socio-cultural
ideas and how they function within his highly politicised approach
to visual culture; examines Virilio's thinking from his first works
on war and cinema to his latest theoretical conjectures on art,
perception and seeing; contributors include Caren Kaplan,
University of California at Davis; Ian James, University of
Cambridge; Benjamin H. Bratton, University of California, San
Diego, and Tania Roy, National University of Singapore.
