Diana Stoll claimed David Levi Strauss is a writer whose visual and intellectual sensibilities are both acute and expansive. His trenchant writings on photography and photographers have been collected for this volume from a broad range of magazines, including Aperture, Artforum and The Nation. In Between the Eyes: Essays on Photography and Politics, Strauss tackles subjects as diverse as ´Photography and Propaganda,´ the imagery of dreams, Sebastiao Salgado´s epic social documents and the deeply personal photographic revelations of Francesca Woodman. The timely issue of photographic legitimacy is addressed in the essay ´Photography and Belief,´ and in ´The Highest Degree of Illusion,´ Strauss discusses the media frenzy surrounding the events of September 11. As our world is shaped more and more by images and their slipperiness, what he calls a media ´pandemonium´ in its root meaning of ´the place of all howling demons,´ we need a mind and voice like Levi Strauss´ to bring clarity to our vision.
