This article critically analyzes a pair of photographs from the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in August 2017: Samuel Corum’s nighttime image of torch-bearing protesters on the University of Virginia campus and Ryan Kelly’s Pulitzer Prize-winning daytime image of counterprotesters falling through the air as James A. Fields Jr. rammed his car into them, killing Heather Heyer. Using a close reading of the images as texts—considering their production, contrasts, and resonances—we argue that the photographs form a temporal, technical, and theoretical diptych of anger, hate, fear, confusion, and sorrow.

白天和黑夜:夏洛茨维尔的仇恨与恐怖视觉双节制

本文严格分析了2017年8月在弗吉尼亚州夏洛茨维尔举行的团结右翼集会上的两张照片:塞缪尔·克鲁姆(Samuel Corum)在弗吉尼亚大学校园内手持火炬的抗议者的夜间图像,以及瑞安·凯利(Ryan Kelly)普利策奖获奖的白天图像,其反抗议者正在倒下小詹姆斯·A·菲尔德斯(James A. Fields Jr.)将车撞向他们,杀死了希瑟·海耶(Heather Heyer)。通过仔细阅读这些图像作为文本(考虑它们的产生,对比和共鸣),我们认为这些照片形成了愤怒,憎恨,恐惧,困惑和悲伤的时间,技术和理论上的双重表现。
