{"product_id":"43704-chris-drange","title":"Chris Drange","description":"\u003cp\u003eMore than seven hundred million people worldwide use Instagram every month, and the numbers are growing. Instagram is the medium for the perfect outfit, the perfect interior decor\u0026mdash;the perfect moment. The most popular photo format is the selfie\u0026mdash;self-portraits that present this perfection through reliable filters. Followers reward selfies with great admiration, envy, or even rejection.\u003cbr \/\u003e\nThis very special relationship between Instagram icons and their followers is observed in Chris Drange\u0026rsquo;s book \u003cem\u003eRelics\u003c\/em\u003e. Contrasting selfies from some of Instagram\u0026rsquo;s most successful users, such as Kim Kardashian or Selena Gomez, with selected comments from their followers, he draws a precise picture of the dynamic between the stars and their admirers. On double-spread pages against black backgrounds, and hardly bigger than a smartphone, this slim volume also visualizes a double-edged body image that oscillates between emancipation of dominant ideals of beauty and the digital body cult.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis book was realized in cooperation with the Materialverlag of the Hochschule f\u0026uuml;r bildende K\u0026uuml;nste Hamburg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874825892104,"sku":"9783775743624","price":15.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775743624_df419aa6-f109-472e-8603-56cfd8e337ef.jpg?v=1744051378","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/43704-chris-drange","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
