Invisible violence

Summary: "Invisible Violence, brings together the work of four artists—Rebecca Belmore, Ken Gonzales-Day,Francisco-Fernando Granados, and Louise Noguchi—who use photography as a point of reference for histories of violence that inform a contemporary politics of representation. Their work intentionally covers, erases, withdraws or cuts apart the main subject of the photographs, delaying the recognition of the structural and systemic violence underlying each image. Taking this interruption as its starting point, the project asks that 'we'—the audience who are informed by contemporary mediascape riddled with images of violence—problematize the first person pronoun. As Susan Sontag writes, 'No 'we' should be taken for granted when the subject is looking at other people’s pain.'"--Publisher's website.
