Refugees and Migrants in Contemporary Film, Art and Media consists of eleven essays that explore how artists have imaginatively engaged with this monumental human drama, examining a range of alternative modes of representation that provide striking new takes on the experiences of these precarious populations. Covering prominent art works by Ai Weiwei and Richard Mosse, and extending the spectrum of representation to refugee film workshops on the island of Lésbos as well as virtual reality installations of Alejandro G. Iñárritu and works by Balkan and Turkish directors, such as Melisa Önel, the chapters included here focus on the power of aesthetic engagement to illuminate the stories of refugees and migrants in ways that overturn journalistic clichés.Media, Culture and Communication in Migrant Societies Immigrants in artImmigrants in motion picturesRefugees in artRefugees in motion picturesRefugees, Migration, Film, Art, Virtual Reality.Immigrants in art.Immigrants in motion pictures.Refugees in art.Refugees in motion pictures.730.924Bayrakdar DenizBurgoyne Robert1949-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910795793503321Refugees and Migrants in Contemporary Film, Art and Media3832390UNINA
