Cultural Politics: July 2012 Issue

The July Issue of Cultural Politics is out! This is our second issue published by Duke University Press. The contemporary art quotient for this issue has been contributed by Roger Denson with his article on Susanne Slavick's 2011 exhibition-in-a-book, OUT OF RUBBLE.

Cultural Politics' artist contributions will soon be accessible on a dedicated website to be launched by Duke University Press. In the meantime, to access artist projects for past issues (which include Zoe Leonard, Nancy Spero, David Humphrey, Carrie Moyer, Yevgeniy Fiks, Paul Chan and others...) please visit our archive at http://culturalpolitics.org

Of OUT OF RUBBLE Roger Denson writes:

My article on Susanne Slavick's exhibition-in-a-book, OUT OF RUBBLE, is now out on Duke University Press's CULTURAL POLITICS. The book is well worth your consideration for its bold embodiment of the new, globally nomadic curation of art. In this case, the art of postwar populations. Read the abstract for my review, "A Time to Gather Stones: Nomadism after War in Susanne Slavick's Out of Rubble," on the CULTURAL POLITICS website.

Other notable articles include:

"Programmed Violence: On the Object of Media Studies," by Bernhard J. Dotzler

"Masters of Adaptation: Paul Bowles, the Beats, and 'Fellaheen Orientalism'” by Rob Wilson

"China as Humanist Exemplum," by Daniel Vukovich

and

"The Competition of Two Discourses: The Making of a New Ideology in China," by Huang Zhuoyue
