The Unmaking of Home in Contemporary Art (Cultural Spaces) by Claudette Lauzon
English | May 4, 2017 | ISBN: 1442649828 | 225 Pages | PDF | 17 MB
In a world where the notion of home is more traumatizing than it is comforting, artists are using this literal and figurative space to reframe human responses to trauma.
Building on the scholarship of key art historians and theorists such as Judith Butler and Mieke Bal, Claudette Lauzon embarks upon a transnational analysis of contemporary artists who challenge the assumption that ‘home’ is a stable site of belonging.
