Résumé:

This book brings together the latest research on 'the state of the real' by practitioners and commentators across the disciplines of photography, film, media studies, critical theory and fine art. It looks first at the different ways in which 'realism' and reality have been understood in recent art history, with a particular focus on debates about the real within photography. Emphasising the role of art in shaping, as well as reflecting, notions of the real, the book features contributions from a number of contemportary artists and showcses a new photo-essay by Andrew Lee. The collection looks finally towards advanced thecnologies and the virtual world in a section which concludes with a specially commissioned contribution by Slavoj Zizek.--Back cover.
