Christof Decker demonstrates that the war and its iconography of destruction challenged visual artists to find new ways of representing its consequences. Dealing with trauma and war crimes led to the emergence of complex aesthetic forms and media crossovers. Decker shows that the 1940s were a pivotal period for the creation of horrific yet also innovative representations that boosted American visual modernism and set the stage for debates about the ethics of visual culture in the post-9\/11 era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christof Decker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3837662020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783837662023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Transcript Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/09\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.34d","brand":"Christof Decker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44078865973503,"sku":"9783837662023","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_729b3dfa-8fbb-47cb-891a-6e1906e092eb.jpg?v=1685477974","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/imaging-the-scenes-of-war-9783837662023","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
