Published on the occasion of an exhibition at C/O Berlin, The Last Image collects works that reveal the particularly powerful relation between photography and death. Photographic images, as the book's editors put it, can be seen as "averting" death through capturing and recording life, but they also can serve as a potent reckoning with death in their direct relation with the human body as object. With both well-known and overlooked works by artists including Larry Clark, Nan Goldin, Thomas Hirschhorn, Peter Hujar, Bertolt Brecht, Gerhard Richter, Weegee and Duane Michals, the catalogue collects over 300 photographs ranging from the 19th century to the present, along with texts by curators, scholars and theoreticians such as Georges Didi-Huberman, Florian Ebner, Peter Geimer, Thomas Macho and Katharina Sykora. Many of the images present are by non-artists, including scientific, personal and journalistic photography.

Many of the images present are by non-artists, including scientific, personal and journalistic photography. Living and dying, loving and letting goimages, films, and books about death tap into our deepest fears about the finiteness of existence. Photography is not the first medium to have been used to avert death, yet since its invention, no other medium has grappled with the subject in quite the same way.

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Leben und sterben, lieben und loslassen - Bilder, Filme, Bücher, die sich mit dem Tod beschäftigen, rühren an den größten Ängsten. Die Fotografie ist nicht das erste Medium, das eingesetzt wurde, um den Tod zu bannen. Aber kein anderes Medium hat seit seiner Erfindung eine vergleichbare Auseinandersetzung durch Bildstrategien und Techniken hervorgebracht. Viele davon haben mit den spezifischen Eigenschaften von Fotografie zu tun: Einerseits wird ihr zugeschrieben, dass sie einen Schnitt durch Raum und Zeit lege und einen Moment festhalte, zum anderen werden die Bilder als unmittelbare Abbilder der Wirklichkeit wahrgenommen. Der ausstellungsbegleitende Katalog präsentiert mit über 400 Exponaten ein bislang noch nie dagewesenes Spektrum an Bildern vom Tod, die von den Anfängen der Fotografie bis in die Gegenwart reichen. Das letzte Bild. Fotografie und Tod, kuratiert von Felix Hoffmann, bei C/O Berlin, 8. Dezember 2018 bis 3. März 2019. N° de réf. du vendeur 9783959052764
