This is the catalogue of an exhibiiton mounted at the Pentonville Gallery in 1986 depicting contemporary and subsequent artists' reactions to the assassination of the Sparticist leaders Rosa Luxembourg and Karl Liebknecht during the suppression of the Sparticist Revolution in Berlin in 1919. Artists exhibited included Käthe Kollwitz, George Grosz, R.B. Kitaj, Max Beckman and Mies van der Rohe.
This book is about the expanding realm of visual culture, which includes, amongst other things, the fields of architecture, art, design, advertising, photography, film, television, video, theatre performance, computer imagery and virtual reality. It is also about Visual Culture Studies, a relatively new academic discipline, or rather range of disciplines, that scholars employ to analyse visual artefacts.
