At War

Ambitious in both scope and content, At War seeks to identify both the changes in the evolution of warfare from the beginning of the 20th century until today, and to show the imagery and thus societys mental and cultural constructs surrounding the issue. But this book on war approaches the age-old subject from a new perspective--the viewer isnt exposed only to now-familiar images of war: soldiers, guns, trenches, victims, limbless survivors. At War provides interpretations and depictions of war from artists such as Otto Dix, Barbara Kruger, Kerr Eby, and Henry Moore; childrens drawings of their war-torn lands; and war paraphenalia, including a clapping device for a one-armed serviceman, and a taxidermy Bomb dog.Monegal, Antonio is the author of 'At War', published 2005 under ISBN 9788495951694 and ISBN 849595169X.
