More Description The first comprehensive study of postcolonial practices in Iberian art curation.
This book reveals how art curation shapes postcolonial identities on the Iberian peninsula. Grappling with colonial fragmentation, communities in Spain, Portugal, Andorra, and France have turned to artistic displays to work out new identities in a modern, cosmopolitan world. These efforts take a variety of forms as particular curators cope with the particular imperial legacies that drive ongoing socio-economic transformation. Curating and the Legacies of Colonialism in Contemporary Iberia thus draws together, expands, and redefines both Iberian and curatorial studies through a decolonial lens.
