Summary:
"Drawing on works from photojournalism, advertising, and contemporary art, Beautiful Suffering features reproductions of all the pieces in the Williams College Museum of Art exhibition of the same name. These images include portrayals of Abu Ghraib prisoners, refugees, and casualties of war, as well as damaged landscapes, assorted forms of self-portraiture, and even suffering that has been digitally fabricated or staged in the artist's studio. This diverse collection is framed by five critical essays that engage the works themselves as well as the larger questions the exhibition confronted."--BOOK JACKET.
