Combining texts that could be advertising copy or extracts from scientific jargon with black and white documentary-style\r\nphotographic images, Burgin visualises how everyday life is dominated by mediatised information (even before the Internet). The best-known example of this semiotic approach is the poster put up in Newcastle in 1976, showing an couple in an intimate situation and stating: ‘What does possession mean to you?\r\n7% of our population own 84% of our wealth.’"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"Victor Burgin (°1941, Verenigd Koninkrijk, leeft in Londen en Parijs) bekritiseert sinds de jaren zestig van de vorige eeuw de zichtbare en onzichtbare ideologie van de hedendaagse westerse kapitalistische maatschappij, in theoretisch gemotiveerde werken. Burgin visualiseert hoe het dagelijkse leven gedomineerd wordt door gemediatiseerde informatie (zelfs nog voor het internet).
