The Work of Art in the Age of Its Technological Reproducibility, and Other Writings - Book by 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.Original Language: English
