E-grāmata: To See In the Dark: Palestine and Visual Activism Since October 7

'Mirzoeff deftly dissects the violent abstractions that are characteristic of the drones remote-controlled gaze, arguing incisively for a return to ways of seeing that are grounded in solidarity and resistance' -- Candice Breitz, artist 'Mirzoeff sharply urges us to divest from a mere spectatorship to a genocide, and insists that we see in relation, in solidarity and as an anti-colonial collective. To See in the Dark is to settle for no less than to see Palestine free' -- Simone Browne, author of Dark Matters: On the Surveillance of Blackness 'If ever we ever needed a contemporary rejoinder to John Bergers Ways of Seeing, this is the book. Timely and clearly written, To See in the Dark is a manifesto to solidarity, a foraging, salvaging and a way to unset alongside the opaque lives of Palestinians, who struggle under organized, genocidal state violence. Through engaging visual works of Palestinian and other artists, Mirzoeff leads us past the colonial visual screen and over the rubble, to see new solidarities that arise from associating with the oppressed by dissociating with systems of oppression whose surveillance, checkpoints, prisons, and drones appear in the white sight of genocide' -- Stephen Sheehi, co-author of Camera Palaestina: Photography and Displaced Histories of Palestine
