How to account for the peculiar attraction of certain photos? How
to deal with the specific use of images in particular contexts?
Monika Schwarzler presents a variety of photographic case studies
exploring visual phenomena from the point of view of media analysis
as well as from sociological, aesthetic, and psychoanalytic
perspectives. The topics range from a new reading of Thomas
Struth's street photographs to CERN photos with their charged
rhetoric, from the assault of photographic close-ups to
speculations on an anonymous slide collection featuring a woman
with an ever-present white handbag. The book is intended for an
audience receptive to the analytical appeal of images, prepared to
go beyond what can be taken at face value.
