This publication brings together international posters from a wide range of categories and reveals continuities as well as changes and deviation in the depiction of the human body. Unsettling and even provocative poster compositions provide food to thought and inspire the discovery of new visual dialogues. Talking bodies strives to promote a critical reappraisal of media images of the body."-- Cover page 4. ER -
