She offers an overview of Walker's life and career, and contextualizes her art within the history of African American visual culture and in relation to the work of contemporary artists ... Shaw describes how Walker deliberately challenges viewers' sensibilities with radically de-sentimentalized images of slavery and racial stereotypes ... By exploiting the racist icons of the past, Walker forces viewers to see the unspeakable aspects of America's racist past and conflicted present"--Back cover. 600 10 Walker, Kara Elizabeth |xCriticism and interpretation. |=^A537096 650 0 African Americans in art. |=^A17934 650 0 Slavery in art. |=^A408112 600 16 Walker, Kara Elizabeth |xCritique et interprétation. |=^A537096 651 6 Noirs américains dans l'art. |?UNAUTHORIZED 651 6 Esclaves dans l'art. |?UNAUTHORIZED 600 14 Walker, Kara, |d1969- |?UNAUTHORIZED 600 17 Walker, Kara. |2swd |?UNAUTHORIZED 776 08 |iOnline version:Shaw, Gwendolyn DuBois, 1968- |tSeeing the unspeakable. |dDurham : Duke University Press, 2004 |w(OCoLC)606177791 776 08 |iOnline version:Shaw, Gwendolyn DuBois, 1968- |tSeeing the unspeakable. |dDurham : Duke University Press, 2004 |w(OCoLC)607381392 856 41 |3Table of contents |uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0417/2004009137.html 856 41 |3Table of contents |uhttp://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&doc_number=012920036&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA 938 Baker & Taylor |bBKTY |c21.95 |d16.46 |i0822333961 |n0006010562 |sactive 938 Baker & Taylor |bBKTY |c74.95 |d74.95 |i0822333619 |n0006010561 |sactive 938 Baker and Taylor |bBTCP |n2004009137 938 YBP Library Services |bYANK |n2095623 938 Ingram |bINGR |n9780822333616 938 Brodart |bBROD |n02257084 |c$79.95 949 N6537.W236 S53 2004 |wLC |i3051310646792 |hENPE6 |o347298 994 C0 |bNPE 590 Little-374298--3051310646792 596 1 2 998 990053
