Arts and Extractivism in the Global Present

Through the lens of contemporary art, this book focuses on social ecologies and those spaces that are characterized, on the one hand, by a high degree of biodiversity, and on the other, by a long history of the extraction of resources, (neo)colonial relationships, and extractivism.

The Failure of the White Cube

This provocative book bridges the gap between theoretical academic writings and practical museum curating, tracing the journey from 19th-century moralist art museums to today's 21- st century inclusive civic art museums via a sustained critique of the 20th-century formalist and hetero-normative white cube model of curating in art museums.

The Visage, Voice and Void in the Community

This book takes an interdisciplinary approach to the face, defined as the human physical constitution in a metaphorical and cultural sense, and its connection with society. This book will interest specialists in the fields of visual semiotics, languages of art, creative industries and cultural heritage, humanities and philosophy.
