The destruction of images has gained increasing relevance on a global scale, fueled by new surges of activity from religious, political, and military extremists. David Freedberg, a renowned scholar in the field of early modern and contemporary iconoclasm, has dedicated five decades to exploring this topic. His extensive work has placed iconoclasm at the forefront of art history, critical to understanding not only art but all images in society. This comprehensive volume brings together the most significant of Freedberg's writings on iconoclasm and censorship, reprinting five key works alongside fresh assessments of contemporary iconoclasm in various regions, including the Near and Middle East, the United States, and South Africa. The writings in this concise volume delve into the dynamics and history of iconoclasm, spanning from the intense battles over images during the Reformation to government repression in modern South Africa, the American culture wars of the early 1990s, and the ongoing phenomenon of cancel culture.
Freedberg, with his unique blend of fresh thinking and deep expertise, addresses the renewed significance of iconoclasm, its ideologies, and its far-reaching impact. This volume serves as a valuable supplement to Freedberg's essay on idolatry and iconoclasm from his groundbreaking book, "The Power of Images." Freedberg's writings are of foundational importance to this discussion, and this volume will be a treasured resource for historians, museum professionals, international law specialists, preservationists, and students alike.
