Art on My Mind: Visual Politics

內容簡介

內容簡介 "As erudite and sophisticated as hooks is, she is also eminently readable, even exhilarating." --BooklistIn Art on My Mind, bell hooks, a leading cultural critic, responds to the ongoing dialogues about producing, exhibiting, and criticizing art and aesthetics in an art world increasingly concerned with identity politics. Always concerned with the liberatory black struggle, hooks positions her writings on visual politics within the ever-present question of how art can be an empowering and revolutionary force within the black community.
