Alfredo Jaar - La politique des images - JRP 2007

This monograph follows the development of Alfredo Jaar's work, from his early public interventions to his latest installations, via his works on the gold miners in the Amazon and the 1994 genocide in Rwanda. The publication also features previously unpublished works created in Santiago at a time when the artist was experiencing the repression of Pinochet's military dictatorship on a daily basis, as well as works made by collating and rethinking press cuttings.
Texts by art historians Georges Didi-Huberman, Griselda Pollock, and Nicole Schweizer, as well as philosopher Jacques Rancière, shed new light on this complex and poetic body of works.
