Description
Explore 'Timed Out', a groundbreaking examination of modern and contemporary art shaped by the legacy of empire. This pivotal work delves into the 'global turn' within art studies, specifically highlighting the transnational Caribbean experience. By providing a comprehensive analysis of the Atlantic world, 'Timed Out' reveals the neglected narratives of Anglophone Caribbean art and its diaspora—art that has historically been positioned outside and behind dominant art canons. This book addresses critical questions about the politics of space and time, allowing readers to rethink the global geography of art through a Caribbean lens. The author unpacks essential themes of temporality and cross-cultural engagement, making it a vital contribution to the burgeoning field of world art studies. Discover how Caribbean artists have countered the challenges of belatedness and anachronism, fighting against the marginalisation that has plagued their representation in art history. With an ISBN of 9780719085949, and published by the esteemed Manchester University Press in 2011, 'Timed Out' is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersections of art, culture, and history. Perfect for students, scholars, and art enthusiasts looking to deepen their understanding of global art narratives.
