Charmaine A. Nelson poses\ncritical questions about the contexts of pro duction\, the problems\nof representation\, the pathways of circulation an d the consequences\nof consumption. She analyzes not only how\, where\, wh y and by whom\nblack female subjects have been represented\, but also what the\nsocial and cultural impacts of the colonial legacy of racialized\nwe stern representation have been. Nelson also explores and\nproblematizes th e issue of the historically privileged white\nartistic access to black fem ale bodies and the limits of\nrepresentation for these subjects. This book not only reshapes our\nunderstanding of the black female representation i n Western Art\,\nbut also furthers our knowledge about race and how and wh y it is\n(re)defined and (re)mobilized at specific times and places\nthrou ghout history.\n DTSTART:20100617T223000Z DTEND:20100617T223000Z LOCATION:CA\, Paragraphe Bookstore\, Paragraphe Bookstore\, 2220 Av. 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ College\, Montréal\, QC SUMMARY:Charmaine Nelson: Book Launch URL:/channels/event/charmaine-nelson-book-launch-16381 3 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
