Softcover. Condition: VG+. Octavo. Softcover. Illustrated wraps. 143 pages : illustrations ; 22 cm. The original, Italian-language edition of this book was published in 2020, in a period when Simone Leigh's monumental work of art, the Brick House, was displayed on New York's High Line. The content in this new, English edition has not been modified; although in the meantime, the celebration of the artist in question has continued. Initially, the sculpture was portrayed only as a "magnificent female figure," an "American goddess;" now it is hailed as an icon for the 21st century. Between April 23 and November 27, 2022, this hierophany represents an "absolute, fixed point" at the 2022 Venice Biennale. While the fanfare and the (quasi-religious) fervor around Leigh's sacred icon of black femininity has only ratcheted up in the past years, this text, now presented in the lingua franca of our era, remains, to my knowledge, the first in-depth investigation of the work's manifold meanings. Eszter Salgó (MA in International Relations and Art History, PhD in Political Science) teaches at John Cabot University and Trinity College Rome Campus. Her interdisciplinary research focuses on the role of the visual in the political realm and the different manifestations of conscious and unconscious emotional experiences in public life. -- Amazon.

Hardback. Condition: New. Drawing upon the disciplines of politics, anthropology, psychoanalysis, aesthetics and cinema studies, Salgo presents a new way of looking at the "art of European unification" and to highlight the mythical sources of the federalist project. The visual narratives constitute the main object of inquiry - the iconography of the new "Europa" series of euro banknotes and the videos launched by the European Commission, the European Parliament and by the European Central Bank, through which the supranational elite seek to generate "collective effervescence," allow for a European carnival to take place, and prompt citizens to pledge allegiance to the sacred dogma of the "ever closer union," thereby strengthening the organization's legitimacy.
