Description
Recently there have been a number of texts on images of pain by authors such as Elaine Scarry, George Roeder, Susan Sontag, Ulrich Baer, Georges Didi-Huberman, and Giorgio Agamben. In this volume, contributors add to the discussion on images of pain by providing thoughtful scholarly accounts of representations of pain in art and the media. The book covers areas such as contemporary performance art, international photojournalism, surrealism, and Renaissance and Baroque art, with imagery of Congolese whippings, contemporary American execution chambers, Abu Ghraib, lynching photographs, and concentration camps, among others.
