House Beautiful Iraq

By Scott Horton

Brooklyn-based artist Martha Rosler focuses on Iraq as a war of choice. As violence and destruction rain down on Iraq, American society continues unaffected, unsuffering and unparticipating. She frames a message by dual references–using a series of photographs taken from American “nesting magazines” juxtaposed with jarring images taken from the war in Iraq. Shown here are four works: Red-Stripe Kitchen, Cellular, Gladiators and Photo-Op.
