Notes:
"Victor Burgin and his collaborators ... challenge the concept of the autonomous, spontaneously creative artist, the idea of documentary truth in photography and the notion of purely visual languages. They develop an account of the production and meaning of a photograph within social institutions - advertising, journalism, art - within a society with a history and within the unconscious."--Page 4 of cover.
