rg, Verlag Vorwerk 8, Berlin / New York 2001
Imprints brings together a selection of writings
produced by Harun Farocki over the past three decades. They provide an insight
into Farocki's filmic work and ist underlying querying of the status, production
and perception of images conveyed technically and through media. As a critical
observer of political and cultural events, Farocki reveals the images' hidden
content in his films and writings, freeing them from the detritus of the encoding
with wich they have been covered in the course of their development, their use
in various media and subsequent reception. Farocki's deconstructive reflections
establish new standards not only for the aesthetics of film but for visual art
as well.
