In and Out of View : Art and the Dynamics of Circulation, Suppression, and Censorship, Hardback Book

Hardback

Description

In and Out of View models an expansion in how censorship is discursively framed.

Contributors from diverse backgrounds, including artists, art historians, museum specialists, and students, address controversial instances of art production and reception from the mid-20th century to the present in the Americas, Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.

Their essays, interviews, and statements invite consideration of the shifting contexts, values, and needs through which artwork moves in and out of view.

At issue are governmental restrictions and discursive effects, including erasure and distortion resulting from institutional policies, canonical processes, and interpretive methods.

Crucial considerations concerning death/violence, authoritarianism, (neo)colonialism, global capitalism, labor, immigration, race, religion, sexuality, activism/social justice, disability, campus speech, and cultural destruction are highlighted.

The anthology—a thought-provoking resource for students and scholars in art history, museum and cultural studies, and creative practices—represents a timely and significant contribution to the literature on censorship.
