摘要

乔纳森·克拉里《观察者的技术》一书是视觉文化研究的重要著作,提供了一种新的西方现代视觉的历史叙述。该书将现代视觉溯源到19世纪上半叶在新的视觉学科发现和新式光学媒介技术基础上出现的一种主观视觉,这一视觉转型所带来的新的观察者正是现代性主体的形象。克拉里的研究开拓了艺术史研究的领域,对视觉性、媒介、感官经验等核心问题进行深入分析,特别体现为“视觉现代性”和“媒介考古学”两种视觉文化与媒介研究的新趋向。克拉里的研究也有助于我们反身整理中国近现代历史中向来被淹没的那些媒介实践与视觉经验。

Abstract

Jonathan Crary's The Techniques of the Observer is one of the most important works of visual culture studies, which provides a new historical perspective on modern western vision. Crary traces modern vision to the subjective vision based on new scientific discoveries on vision and new inventions of optical apparatus of the nineteenth century. Thus a new type of observer, who is seen as a modern subject by Crary, was formed. Crary's study has enlarged the field of art history and he has conducted lots of in-depth analysis of visuality, media, perception, etc. His book especially shows two new trends in visual and media studies, which are the studies of visual modernity and media archeology. Such studies could also inspire Chinese scholars to investigate the complicated historical experiences and practices of vision and media in modern China.
