Description

Work and the Image: Volume 2 examines how visual culture represents labour across modern societies, originally published in 2000 and now reissued by Routledge Revivals. This scholarly collection traces artistic depictions of work from ancient Greek pottery through contemporary performance, spanning multiple geo-national contexts including France, Britain, Hungary, Soviet Russia, Ukraine, Siberia and Germany. The essays challenge conventional interpretations of work imagery, labour processes and the philosophical question of whether artistic creation constitutes work itself. Essential for scholars, students and cultural historians exploring the intersection of visual representation, labour studies and social processes in modern times.
