AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
"In my experience, the two most essential features of war are horror and absurdity," says Christoph Bangert, the German photojournalist who has been documenting crises for international publications like the New York Times for ten years.
After he explored our society’s handling of horrific images in his media-celebrated book War Porn (Kehrer 2014), he now engages with the bitter absurdity of war in his new work hello camel. He contrasts our clichéd notion of modern war as a rapid, dramatic, and heroic event with his calm and orderly, yet equally peculiar and foreign images of wars in Afghanistan, Gaza, Darfur, Lebanon and Iraq.
At the same time, hello camel is a documentation of human endeavor to create something like normality in the face of violence and chaos.
