Cold War Visual Images
[ send me this essay ]
The images of the Cold War Era were not of the cold war. The public media, magazines and movies, were portraying the affluence of and freedom of the American way of life, while the photographers that were taking meaningful photos, such as Diane Arbus, were not published until the paranoia of the McCarthy years had subsided. The only stark representation of the underlying fear that logically accompanies a threat of war of the magnitude suggested in the existence of the Cold War was the images coming from the world of fine art. There were many painters, sculptures and crafters within the genre of abstract expressionism that felt a need to portray the emotional atmosphere hidden in the hearts of the people. This 5 page paper examines the effect of the cold war mentality on the photographs that predominated the pages of Life magazine, the photos of Diane Arbus and the abstract expressionist painting, Study After Velasquez's Portrait of Pope Innocent X by Francis Bacon. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
