Displacing Caravaggio

Art, Media, and Humanitarian Visual Culture

Francesco Zucconi; Zakiya Hanafi

978-3-319-93378-8

2018
Edition 1
- Translated by Zakiya Hanafi
- Marks the first book to offer an archeology of “humanitarian visual culture”
- Challenges readers to reconsider the relationship between the representation of suffering in the repertory of Western art and contemporary communication
- Draws from a number of on-going discussions in different fields of study that are rarely considered together: art history, theory of media, visual studies and postcolonial studies
- Explores different media forms of humanitarian communication: from photography to the most recent devices of virtual reality cinema, through the tradition of lantern-slide lectures
- Investigates the real likelihood of “displacing” the West’s artistic heritage in order to develop a critical understanding of some of the most pressing problems of the contemporary scenario
