This film, An Image, is part of a series I've worked for since 1979. The television station that commissioned it assumed in these cases that I was making a film that was critical of its subject matter, and the owner or manager of the thing that was being filmed assumed that my film was an advertisement for them. I tried to do neither. Nor did I wanted to do something in between, but to go beyond both of them. "
Harun Farocki
An Image is one of the most relevant short-films of Harun Farocki, with which the artist reflects on the use and production of images in order to rethink the seductive influences of the different power structures of contemporary society. With this work Farocki reveals different ways by which images are produced and the labour that this procedure implies in order to seduce viewers and get them to consume these images.
