Harun Farocki: Diagrams Images from Ten Films

by Harun Farocki
Walther König · 2014 · paperback

Harun Farocki: Diagrams. Images from Ten Films is a book of still images from ten of Farocki's films, arranged to show how each film is built.

The designer Benedikt Reichenbach edited it and made it with Farocki for the filmmaker's seventieth birthday in January 2014. Each film appears as a run of stills, with its full commentary, dialogue and intertitles alongside, and the book adds essays commissioned from Thomas Elsaesser, Maren Grimm, Jan Verwoert, Christa Blümlinger, Dietrich Leder, Ute Holl, Matthias Rajmann, Hila Peleg, Anselm Franke and Reichenbach himself. Images of the World and the Inscription of War (1988) is one of the ten films. Walther König published the English-language paperback in 2014, at 384 pages with 1,052 colour illustrations and one in black and white.

Farocki was a visiting professor at the University of California, Berkeley, from 1993 to 1999 and held a professorship at the Academy of Art in Vienna from 2006 to 2011. His site dates his museum and gallery exhibitions from 1996. From 2011 he worked with Antje Ehmann on the long-term project Labour in a Single Shot.
