Description

"War Primer 2" appropriates the first English-language version of Bertolt Brecht's 1955 "Kriegsfibel" in which Brecht combined press photographs from the World Wars with four-line poems. Compiled intermittently over three decades, Brecht's book was a visual and lyrical attack on war and its propagandists under modern capitalism. Shifting the critique to contemporary narratives portrayed in the so-called 'War on Terror', Broomberg and Chanarin strategically overlay the pictorial pages of Brecht's "War Primer" with images culled from the internet and generated by the participants and reporters of the contemporary conflict. Underlying this junction of two visual histories is a profound skepticism of mass media images. Brecht's "War Primer" notably drew attention to the didactic role of photojournalism that served war's callous profiteers. The title deliberately recalled textbooks used to teach primary school children how to read, and the book, which used razor-sharp words to dismantle visual messages, effectively served as a manual, demonstrating how to "read" or "translate" press photographs - images that Brecht referred to as hieroglyphics in need of decoding. This paperback edition of the 21st century adaptation is a facsimile of the book which earned Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin the 2013 Deutsche Börse Photography Prize.--OCLC OLUC.
