E-raamat: Grime, Glitter, and Glass: The Body and the Sonic in Contemporary Black Art

Nikki A. Greenes sonic linking of RenÉe Stout, Radcliffe Bailey, and MarĶa Magdalena Campos-Pons through the visual marks an important theoretical intervention and makes connections across the African diasporic world. Grime, Glitter, and Glass makes a remarkable contribution to the history of art. - Kellie Jones, author of (South of Pico: African American Artists in Los Angeles in the 1960s and 1970s) This groundbreaking book will expand how we look at contemporary art and artists who use the archive in multiple ways. Nikki A. Greene compellingly illuminates the commitment RenÉe Stout, Radcliffe Bailey, and MarĶa Magdalena Campos-Pons have to African American materials and to expressive and sonic culture. Grime, Glitter, and Glass will appeal to numerous audiences, from art historians and artists to general readers. This important book will have a lasting impact. - Deborah Willis, author of (The Black Civil War Soldier: A Visual History of Conflict and Citizenship) "Exploring the sonic grime via funk, glitter via shine, and glass via colonial histories of Black contemporary art through these selected artists, Greene adds a novel component to Black American cultural critique." - Nereya Otieno (Hyperallergic) "Grime, Glitter, and Glass is a must-read that is as delightful and prismatic as its magnificent title." - Alexandra M.
