She does this all while simultaneously moving readers into the social complexity of Western Desert Indigenous art and outward into contemporary Australia's broader social politics of culture and arts. Remote Avant-Garde is tour de force of aesthetic life under settler occupation that moves approaches to art, politics, and aesthetic theory in new and exciting directions. --Elizabeth A. Povinelli, author of Economies of Abandonment: Social Belonging and Endurance in Late Liberalism Author InformationJennifer Loureide Biddle is Director of Visual Anthropology & Visual Culture and Senior Research Fellow at the National Institute for Experimental Arts at the University of New South Wales. She is the author of Breasts, Bodies, Canvas: Central Desert Art as Experience. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
