AN ACUTE, OVERARCHING ANALYSIS OF ALLAN SEKULA'S PHOTOGRAPHY, FILM AND PROSE, ILLUMINATING HIS CRITIQUE OF NEOLIBERAL CAPITALISM

The photographer, filmmaker and theorist Allan Sekula (1951-2013) was one of the most significant media intellectuals of the last fifty years, renowned for a sequence of compelling anti-capitalist artworks. This penetrating study pursues surprising paths through his practice, delineating the depicted top­ics as well as his dialectics of form. Posing new questions about the rela­tions between aesthetics and politics, Gail Day and Steve Edwards consider Sekula's examination of image modes alongside his radical investigations of terraqueous capitalism.
