Harun Farocki, Ein Bild - An image, 16mm film, 23 min, 1983
Four days spent in a studio working on a centerfold photo for Playboy magazine provided the subject matter for my film. The magazine itself deals with culture, cars, a certain lifestyle. Maybe all those trappings are only there to cover up the naked woman. Maybe it's like with a paper-doll. The naked woman in the middle is a sun around which a system revolves: of culture, of business, of living! (It's impossible to either look or film into the sun.) One can well imagine that the people creating such a picture, the gravity of which is supposed to hold all that, perform their task with as much care, seriousness, a responsibility as if they were splitting uranium.
This film, An Image, is part of a series I've been working on since 1979. The television station that commissioned it assumes in these cases that I'm making a film that is critical of its subject matter, and the owner or manager of the thing that's being filmed assumes that my film is an advertisement for them. I try to do neither. Nor do I want to do something in between, but beyond both. (Harun Farocki, 1988)

My fifth recommendation for #bookchallenge, by invitation of #ruthkaaserer, to post the cover of a book of importance to me for seven days–without a review: ‘A Corner in Wheat’ by Helmut Färber. I got the book as present from #harunfarocki. https://www.instagram.com/p/B-QBto1FoNN/?igshid=bs6siigxc3de
