Bibliography. Index. Publisher's pictorial wraps. From the rear cover: "BECLOUDED VISIONS is an exploration of the many and varied ways in which atrocity has shaped the requirements of art vision and collective memory in the twentieth century. The atomic bombs that were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki serve as a starting point but what begins as a study of visual culture related to the atomic bombings soon generates questions that can be applied to multiple sites and practices of communal remembrance. Drawing on a diverse array of images -- ranging from military photographs to survivor paintings -- Maclear asks what it means to see such representations. What does it mean to put a face to horror Does 'seeing everything' make us more humane Is it possible to become inured to images of violence She probes the nature of our fascination with images of horror and she questions our attachment to pictorial realism and graphic memory. Placing philosophers such as Jacques Derrida Walter Benjamin and Theodore Adorno in the context of ongoing debates about history and memory BECLOUDED VISIONS provides a refreshing perspective on art remembrance and mourning.".

Yet his spirit continues to inspire me. Instead of commemorations I prefer anniversaries. And in my heart I celebrate a date of which I remain the sole custodian: November 4 1955 the day Picasso welcomes me for the first time into his home at his residence in Cannes" - from the opening text by Lucien Clergue.
