| dc.description.abstract | All languages have a code. Photography is a language, but it has no code; it is universally seen. The language of photography (its image) is not seen in Chinese, Arabic or English. Press photographs, especially those reporting violence and war, showing dead, dying or suffering people, become trivial in modern visual cultures. They have ethical implications: its excessive iconic violence. Through a visual rhetoric, they are simulacra, provoking sensationalism, making the real seem less stimulating and violent than its image. They are a fetish product whose power is in the ideological and aesthetical ways of seeing and thinking the events. | pt_PT |
