The politics of identity and recognition in the 'global art world' -- The artist as migrant worker -- Mining the museum in an age of migration -- Identification, disidentification and the imaginative reconfiguaration of identity -- Migrant geographies and European politics of irregular migration.
Summary: 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.
