What The Final Fuck! - Jean-Marie Donat
The photographs in the What the Fuck! series come from all over the world, and were collected in the course of peregrinations on the Web. Like its predecessors, What the Final Fuck! is part personal curiosity cabinet, part documentary corpus, and offers a contemporary vision of amateur photography, questioning the place, function and sharing of today's vernacular photography, as well as the new social relationships it illustrates. On the networks and websites from which these photographs originate, the acronym WTF often precedes content to signify the awe it provokes. This interjection expresses both the incomprehension and the unease of the "voyeur" faced with these images. Their accumulation underlines the mad rush to share "extra-ordinary" content for an anesthetized public, and raises the question of the dilution of meaning.
