{"product_id":"9781032489353","title":"The Creatures Time Forgot : Photography and Disability Imagery by David Hevey","description":"First published in 1992, The Creatures Time Forgot examines the representation of disabled people - in advertising, particularly that produced by disability charities, and in the work of photographers such as Diane Arbus and Gary Winogrand. He shows how such images construct disabled people as `creatures,' the tragic-but-brave objects of photographic gaze, or as the `'appy `andicapped' of `positive imagery' advertising. As a disabled photographer and writer, David Hevey has been a pioneer in challenging such visual representations of disabled people. His work advocates a move away from medical, charity or impairment-fixated imagery towards a visual equivalent of `Rights not Charity'. The book outlines David Hevey's own photographic practice and includes wide-ranging selections from his work to create a visual form which reflects the new social presence of disabled people. This book will be of interest to students of media studies, cultural studies, and disability studies.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56295893926261,"sku":"9781032489353","price":94.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781032489353.jpg?v=1762769524","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781032489353","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
