Insightful and engaging, this new Canadian edition of Practices of Looking offers a broad overview of contemporary visual culture from an integrated North American perspective. With a strong awareness of the centrality of visual stimulation in our everyday lives, the authors explore the manyways we use icons, photographs, film, television, video games, advertisements, scientific images, and other visual media to create meaning and construct identity. Fully recognizing the many social, cultural, and political differences that make the Canadian visual experience distinct, thiscomprehensive volume highlights Canadian visual culture against the backdrop of an increasingly globalized visual world.
