On Perfection

This book frames the current social and political condition through the prism of Perfection; an idea which has had great historical resonance and mutability, but which has had little attention as a recent area of academic concern or art practice. It provides an accessible reconsideration of contemporary lens-based practices, primarily through the eyes of practitioners. The breadth and depth of content included in the book is spectacular, from high quality, international contributors, supported by two highly respected galleries, known for showing cutting-edge, politically engaged work. Based on the 2012 symposium 'On Perfection', held at the Whitechapel Gallery in East London, this book explores the ways in which artists engage with ideas of perfection, drawing on screenings, performances, and discussions.
