About this book
The symbolic meaning of the specific way of shooting a photo of oneself is immediately apparent, however looking at his portrait after shooting, the shooter sees that he trained his gun on himself and ultimately fired the shot at himself. This book traces back the history of this process, from its more popular form as a shooting gallery at Luna Parks to its re-appropriation and respective use by various artists.
