This Filmmaker Saw War Everywhere, and So Can You
  + stars: | 2024-08-01 | by ( Travis Diehl | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
For Harun Farocki, even as visual media raced from film strips to computers, one thing remained constant: Pictures reveal more than they intend to. Naming the ideologies embedded in workaday images was Farocki’s life’s work. The German filmmaker and artist was born in Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia in 1944 to an Indian father and German mother, lived in a divided Germany, and died in 2014, in a booming, unified Berlin. His meticulous style of essay film, combining found images and formidably researched texts, has become essential to the cinematic tool kit. Eight of his works on the perennial theme of war, curated by Antje Ehmann, an artist and Farocki’s widow, are on view at Greene Naftali.
