How do we see the world around us? The Penguin on Design series includes the works of creative thinkers whose writings on art, design and the media have changed our vision forever.
Susan Sontag’s groundbreaking critique of photography asks forceful questions about the moral and aesthetic issues surrounding this art form. Photographs are everywhere. They have the power to shock, idealize or seduce, they create a sense of nostalgia and act as a memorial, and they can be used as evidence against us or to identify us. In six incisive essays, Sontag examines the ways in which we use these omnipresent images to manufacture a sense of reality and authority in our lives.

摄影发明之初,似乎并不如我们所想象的那样迅速为大众所接受。这项源自法国的技术传到德国时,带给人们的大都是颇为恐慌的心理体验。比如当时的《莱布尼茨报》就认为应该对抗这项来自法国的恶魔技艺:“要将浮动短暂的镜像固定住是不可能的事,非但如此,单是想留住影像,就等...
评分有多少峰涌而至的人挤上香山,几乎就有多少台照相机被带上香山。这是一个大众摄影艺术蓬勃发展的时代。摄影早就从上个世纪贵族记录家族人员的少数人才能享受的高等待遇而变成了时下平民大众亦可娱乐的大工业时代产物。影像泛滥成灾,像色情照片,广告美女宣传画,像脱衣...
评分在一个充斥着假象的世界里,在真理被扭曲的时代,她致力于维护自由思想的尊严 她是指苏珊·桑塔格(Susan Sontag),论摄影(On Photography)一书的作者。本书透过对摄影这一动作/事件的阐述将一些对人类社会及文化发展的思考清晰展现。 全书分为六个章节,分别阐述一个主题,我...
评分在《走出非洲》的开头,凯伦要把丹尼斯放到最后来写,以祭奠逝去珍贵的时光,因为他最难写。这难写是不能举重若轻,取舍和介入的分寸难以拿捏。畏惧扭曲必然畏首畏脚。苏珊桑塔格做为一个被熟识的作家却永远不会成为畅销书一栏后面的作家,这是她的荣耀,也是因为她...

评分To photograph people is to violate them, by seeing them as they never see themselves, by having knowledge of them that they can never have; it turns people into objects that can be symbolically possessed. Just as a camera is a sublimation of the gun, to photograph someone is a subliminal murder - a soft murder, appropriate to a sad, frightened time
评分Melancholy Objects和Image-World两章很有趣 放今天有些观点显然也是如过去的摄影图集一般有时间痕迹(不过引入digitalization后或许摄影于现实的存在并没有什么本质变化?只是拥有了更强劲的复制与消费速率?) 总之Sontag的思辨和角度依然是非常启发的
