About A Study of Assassination

A Study of Assassination is a project that explores a CIA document, which was made public as a sort of manual  or study on how to be an assassin. The book is divided into two sets of images; one of them uses photomontage to repurpose the manual. Selley's book uses archival images from the press, advertisements, police reports, staged images and even Cold War Propaganda.
