Reviews

An essential text for the scholar and advanced student of postmodern art and cinema studies, as well as any reader interested in the ways sexual, racial, and gender identity are reflected in and challenged by cultural production. Bouman’s lucid, engaging style is a gift to the reader, and the intriguing, fully developed conclusions she comes to will be a major inspiration the next generation of scholars attending to visual culture. * Daniel Humphrey, Professor of Film and Media Studies, Texas A&M University, USA * By looking at significant works of contemporary multimedia art, from video installation, to photography and performance, Bouman’s exegesis highlights the fluidity of time, epistemology, masculinity, queerness, race, gender and feminism in sample-based practices. * Kitty Scott, Strategic Director, Shorefast and Fogo Island Arts, Canada * This book offers a refreshing and insightful exploration of sampling and site-specificity in 21st century artistic production. Nimbly analyzing works that bridge historical referents and present-day contexts, Bouman illuminates the complex interplay between postproduction techniques, phenomenological experience, and institutional critique in video and installation art. * Kate Mondloch, Professor of History of Art and Architecture, University of Oregon, USA *
