Description
The gesture of pointing is the perfect embodiment of photography’s function as a visual document: an injunction to look at this . In this textual and visual essay, artist Joan Fontcuberta takes the index finger as his point of departure for an insightful and irreverent consideration of photography’s relation to indexicality.
