Visual Culture for a Global Audience by Robert E Gutsche Jr
Takes a conceptually progressive approach to visual images and examines the role of control in visuals and images of gender, science, technology, and race. The material connects practical visual issues to critical, cultural studies. Images at the focus of this book are related to militarization, state violence, control, and masculinity in entertainment, journalism, advertising, and more.
Drawing on visuals across the spectrum – from classic films to billboards, from Barbie dolls to basketball stars – this collection provides readers with a comprehensive lens to examine the power and politics behind the multi-media culture we encounter on a daily basis" —James Kilgore, author of Understanding Mass Incarceration: A People's Guide to the Key Civil Rights Struggle of Our Time
