Paperback. Condition: Fine. 1st. vii, 48 pages, illustrations (some colour); 26 cm. Catalogue of an exhibition held at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Boston, February 18 to May 21, 2000. Firm binding, clean inside copy. *** A participatory installation by Taiwanese-American artist Lee Mingwei (b. 1964). *** "Lee Mingwei's simple yet elegant installations provide a stage for interpersonal exchange around ordinary human events or activities -- admiring an object, making conversation, or writing a letter to a friend or family member. His past installations such as 'The Dining Project' and 'The Letter-Writing Project' are explored along with a recent project developed while an artist in residence at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum called 'The Living Room.' This installation creates a modern-day version of the salon life the museum's founder used to enliven her collection. In his essay, Lewis Hyde asks us to consider Isabella Gardner's intentions in creating a place that was her home as well as a public space for appreciating art. Lee's new installation reflecting his interest in Gardner's interaction with visitors to her museum at the turn of the century and his installations as exchanges between viewer and artist are explored in an essay by Jennifer Gross." - Publisher.

Paperback. Condition: New. In Reconfiguring Racial Capitalism, Mingwei Huang traces the development of new forms of racial capitalism in the twenty-first century. Through fieldwork in one of the "China malls" that has emerged along Johannesburg's former mining belt, Huang identifies everyday relations of power and difference between Chinese entrepreneurs and African migrant workers in these wholesale shops. These relations, Huang contends, replicate and perpetuate global structures of white supremacy, anti-Blackness, capitalism, and colonialism, even when whiteness is not present. Huang argues that this dynamic reflects the sedimented legacies and continued operation of white supremacy and colonialism, which have been transformed in the shift of capitalism's center of gravity toward China and the Global South. These new forms of racial capitalism and empire layer onto and extend histories of exploitation and racialization in South Africa. Taking a palimpsestic approach, Huang offers tools for understanding this shift and decentering contemporary Western conceptions of race, empire, and racial capitalism in the Chinese Century.…
