Migration into Art

This book addresses a topic of increasing importance to artists, art historians and scholars of cultural studies, migration studies and international relations: migration as a profoundly transforming force that has remodelled artistic and art institutional practices across the world. It explores contemporary art's critical engagement with migration and globalisation as a key source for improving our understanding of how these processes transform identities, cultures, institutions and geopolitics. The author explores three interwoven issues of enduring interest: identity and belonging, institutional visibility and recognition of migrant artists, and the interrelations between aesthetics and politics, including the balancing of aesthetics, politics and ethics in representations of forced migration.

Aceasta carte abordeaza un subiect de importanta crescanda pentru artisti, istorici de arta si cercetatori in studii culturale, studii de migratie si relatii internationale: migratia ca o forta profund transformatoare care a remodelat practicile institutionale artistice si de arta din intreaga lume. Acesta exploreaza angajamentul critic al artei contemporane cu migratia si globalizarea ca sursa cheie pentru imbunatatirea intelegerii noastre despre modul in care aceste procese transforma identitatile, culturile, institutiile si geopolitica.
