Citas grāmatas par šo tēmu:
Edges of Empire is a timely reassessment of the history and legacy of Orientalist art and visual culture through its focus on the intersection between modernization, modernism and Orientalism.



Covers indigenous art and agency, contemporary practices of collection and display, and a survey of key Orientalist tropes

Contains original essays on new perspectives for scholars and students of art history, architecture, museum studies and cultural and postcolonial studies

Highlights contested identities and new definitions of self through topics such as 19th century monuments to Empire, cultural cross-dressing, performance and display at the international exhibitions, and contemporary museological practice.

Recenzijas

"A pioneering collection of essays that offers a truly transnational approach to cross-cultural exchange. With great clarity and imagination, Edges of Empire forces us to re-think Orientalism both historically and politically." Michael Hatt, Yale University
