    Images have always stirred ambivalent reactions. Yet whether eliciting fascinated gazes or iconoclastic repulsion from their beholders, they have hardly ever been seen as true sources of knowledge. They were long viewed as mere appearances, placeholders for the things themselves, or deceptive illusions. Today, the traditional critique of the spectacle has given way to an unconditional embrace of the visual....
