Particularly in concert with aggressive display techniques, the European fascists were utterly convinced of their ability to use the medium of photography to manufacture consent among their publics. Unfortunately, as we know in hindsight, they succeeded. Other dictatorial regimes in the 1930s harnessed this powerful combination of photography and exhibitions for their own odious purposes. But this book, for the first time, focuses on the particularly consequential dialectic between Germany and Italy in the early-to-mid 1930s, and within each of those countries vis-a-vis display culture. The 1930s provides a potent case study for every generation, and it is as urgent as ever in our global political environment to deeply understand the central role of visual imagery in what transpired. Photofascism demonstrates precisely how dictatorial regimes use photographic mass media, methodically and in combination with display, to persuade the public with often times highly destructive-even catastrophic-results"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Last stop before photofascism : activist photo spaces and the exhibition of the Building Workers Unions, Berlin, 1931 -- "Acting on the visitor's mind" : the Exhibition of the Fascist Revolution, Rome, 1932 -- Nazis in ascendance : Die Kamera, Berlin, 1933 -- "A fundamental irony" : international art in the age of nationalism at the Venice International Film Festivals 1932-36 -- Both/And : German and Italian photography exhibitions in 1936-37 -- Epilogue : Hegemony to terror, 1938-1942 & visual culture in the 21st century. 650 0 $a Photography $x Political aspects $x Political aspects $z Germany. 650 0 $a Photography $x Political aspects $x Political aspects $z Italy. 650 0 $a Fascism and photography $z Germany. 650 0 $a Fascism and photography $z Italy. 650 0 $a Fascism and motion pictures $z Germany. 650 0 $a Fascism and motion pictures $z Italy. 650 7 $a Fascism and photography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02021921 650 7 $a Fascism and motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00921579 651 7 $a Germany. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210272 651 7 $a Italy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204565 776 08 $i Online version: $a Rocco, Vanessa. $t Photofascism $d London ; New York : Bloomsbury Visual Arts, 2020 $z 9781501347078 $w (DLC) 2020035607 830 0 $a Visual cultures and German contexts. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017020018.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F7C76BBA9F4211EBBB7E29A634ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
