Jurkjes en Jason: 27 Views On Terrorism Today

Jurkjes en Jason: 27 Views On Terrorism Today collects short image- and text-based contributions from twenty-seven different makers, each responding in a page or two to the same brief: how terrorism appears, circulates, and is represented in contemporary visual culture.

Published by the Eindhoven imprint Onomatopee in 2008, the book takes its Dutch title — roughly "little dresses and Jason" — from the tonal range of the contributions inside, which move between the domestic and the horror-film register the reference implies. Rather than a single authored essay or portfolio, the book is structured as an anthology of brief, plural takes, closer in form to a group survey or a class project than a monograph.

As a multi-contributor project with no single named editor credited on the cover, it is catalogued here under the library's Various Artists convention; individual contributors are not itemized in the source record consulted.
