Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se irá gostar deste livro. Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. Still marvelously important, and surprisingly - but rightly - angry. A joy. ( ) Pretty great. Short and doesn't cover much but gives some interesting ideas to think about and what it does talk about (oil paintings, art as class indicators, treatment of women in art, advertising) it gives you a very good idea of. Gives a nice look at ideas surrounding cultural studies and even hints at stuff like semiotics. I also like his somewhat Marxist slant. The photo essays are a bit confusing - partially it's because the pictures are small so you can't get a good idea of each picture and compare/think through similarities/differences. Like it's cool that they gave you a set of pictures with no words and yeah I pondered on them a bit but I'd have loved to see their opinions too because I'm a complete idiot and that's what I buy books for. I just don't feel they work so well. I felt sometimes that it used a few jargon words without any definition and although it's quite possible to guess what they mean it makes it a bit more off-putting as an introduction than it could be. It's not too bad though, so don't let it put you off reading it. Ultimately the negatives are no big deal though. It's short and doesn't go into huge detail but that's the nature of an introduction. It has a great incisive style that cuts to the heart of what's going on pretty often. With the caveat mentioned above about the few jargon words, I recommend reading it. It's radical and will give you a lot of ideas. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
