Identity Theft examines the complex socio-political forces that powerfully influence the production of visual art in our postcolonial and globalised world. Offering multiple and detailed case-studies drawn from around the world – the work of exiled Iranian and Palestinian artists, contemporary art in Turkey, the architectural reconstruction of Berlin since World War Two, hybrid urban development in Latin American countries, recent film in India, modern art in Nigeria, and wood sculpture in New Guinea commissioned by multinational mining companies – this collection of essays asks questions about the transformed meanings of ‘art’ and ‘identity’ in an era dominated by a hyperinternationalisation of cultural production. Identity Theft is intended for all students and academics interested in the fate of modern art and the prospects for future cultural production in a globalised art world economy.

Hardcover. Etat : New. This engaging collection examines the complex socio-political forces that have powerfully influenced, for better or worse, the production of visual art in our postcolonial and globalized world. Drawing on case studies from around the worldâ"from the work of exiled Iranian and Palestinian artists to the architectural reconstruction of Berlin following World War II to modern Nigerian artâ"Identity Theft asks important and highly topical questions about the transformed meanings of the concepts of art and identity in an era dominated by the rapid globalization of cultural production and economy of the art world. Proposing that much recent art contributes to radical critique of art historyâs imperial originsâ"while taking full advantage of the globalizing structures of the trade left in imperialismâs wakeâ"this volume is of interest to any student or academic of modern art.
