Exilee and Temps Morts : Selected Works, Paperback / softback Book

Exilee and Temps Morts : Selected Works Paperback / softback

Edited by Constance M. Lewallen

Paperback / softback

Description

In her radical exploration of cultural and personal identity, the writer and artist Theresa Hak Kyung Cha sought “the roots of language before it is born on the tip of the tongue.” Her first book, the highly original postmodern text Dictee, is now an internationally studied work of autobiography.

This volume, spanning the period between 1976 and 1982, brings together Cha’s previously uncollected writings and text-based pieces with images.

Exilee and Temps Morts are two related poem sequences that explore themes of language, memory, displacement, and alienation—issues that continue to resonate with artists today.

Back in print with a new cover, this stunning selection of Cha’s works gives readers a fuller view of a major figure in late twentieth-century art. Copublished by Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive
