Description
by Nicholas Mirzoeff (Author)
"Timely and clearly written, To See In the Dark is a manifesto to solidarity" Stephen Sheehi, co-author of Psychoanalysis Under Occupation
"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" Simone Browne, author of Dark Matters
"Mirzoeff argues incisively for a return to ways of seeing that are grounded in solidarity and resistance" Candice Breitz, video and photography artist
To see Palestine is to see the world. Since October 7th 2023, the forces of racial capitalism and settler colonialism have become all too visible in Israel's genocidal war on Gaza.
In To See In the Dark, Nicholas Mirzoeff explores how images, and especially video, viewed outside Palestine enabled a dramatic switch in public opinion, leading to a global uprising against the genocide.
In this groundbreaking analysis, he connects the personal and the political through his own anti-Zionist Jewishness and its histories of violence.
The result is a new collective and anti-colonial way of seeing, intersecting online and embodied experience.
Nicholas Mirzoeff is a pioneering figure in the field of visual culture and has written extensively on Jewishness and Palestine. His books include How To See The World, and The Right to Look. He has written for the Guardian and The Nation.
