The Work of Art in the Age of Its Technological Reproducibility, and Other Writings - Book by Walter Benjamin

Name: The Work of Art in the Age of Its Technological Reproducibility, and Other Writings
Author: Walter Benjamin

In this essay, Walter Benjamin examines how technological advances, particularly in photography and film, alter the nature of art. He argues that reproduction diminishes the "aura" of a work of art—its unique presence in time and space. As art becomes more reproducible, it shifts from being a cult object to a commodity, changing the relationship between the artwork and its audience.
