Through analyses of visual culture from contemporary \"war art\" to the meme wars, they argue that the art that most effectively challenges the ethics and aesthetics of war and terror today is that which disrupts this flow-art that makes alternative perceptions of wartime both visible and possible. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs a theoretical work, \u003ci\u003eImages of War in Contemporary Art\u003c\/i\u003e is richly supported by visual and textual evidence and firmly embedded in current artistic practice. Significantly, though, the book breaks with both traditional and current ways of thinking about war art-offering a radical rethinking of the politics and aesthetics of art today through analyses of a diverse scope of contemporary art that includes Ben Quilty, Abdul Abdullah (Australia), Mladen Miljanovic, Nebojsa Seric Soba (Bosnia and Herzegovina), Hiwa K, Wafaa Bilal (Iraq), Teresa Margolles (Mexico), and Arthur Jafa (United States).","brand":"Bloomsbury Visual Arts","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47572910342295,"sku":"9781350227330","price":13585.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781350227330.webp?v=1774891441","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/images-of-war-in-contemporary-art-terror-and-conflict-in-the-mass-media-9781350227330","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
