Opinion: Perceiving images, imaging perception #IndiaNEWS #News
By Pramod K Nayar
One of the most celebrated photographs that had the (mis)fortune to be withdrawn from official exhibits was Richard Drew’s “Falling Man�. Drew, entirely by accident, captured the man falling/leaping off the World Trade Centre (WTC) on 9/11. Drew’s photograph along with other photographs of people jumping/falling from the Towers, were later banished from public displays and reproductions. ABC News took the decision not to broadcast images of bodies plummeting, as did the NBC which showed one such falling body and then stopped.
Yet the image became iconic, figuring in Don De Lillo’s 9/11 novel, Falling Man, besides sculptures like Eric Fischl’s sculptor Tumbling Woman (2002) and Sharon Paz’s Falling (2002), and a parody in Art Spiegelman’s In the Shadow of No Towers, a graphic board book on 9/11.
