Jonathan Crary decisively relocates the problem of aesthetic contemplation within a broader collective encounter with the unstable nature of perception—in psychology, philosophy, neurology, early cinema, and photography.
Jonathan Crary (born 1951) is an American art critic and essayist and is the Meyer Schapiro Professor of Modern Art and Theory at Columbia University.
Translaed from the English (American) by Cécile Magné (iriginal title: Suspensions of Perception: Attention, Spectacle, and Modern Culture, MIT Press, 2001).
