{"product_id":"storytellers-of-art-histories-9781789384277","title":"Storytellers of Art Histories","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis anthology, \u003cem\u003eStorytellers of Art Histories\u003c\/em\u003e, gives voice to those who are reshaping art histories: not only art historians and curators, but also archivists and artists.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThere is a special focus on gender, race (including Whiteness), class, sexuality and transnationality – all of which are often marginalized in dominant art histories. Each of the contributors in this book has provided short, often very personal, contributions describing how they began to become passionate about their practice. A particular feature of the collection is that there are twice as many contributions by women than by men.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe contributors respond in a multitude of surprising ways, appealing equally to people enmeshed in the field through their work and to those simply interested in the field. The stories you will read take various forms – a letter written to a friend, a revisioned grant application, the pastiche of image and text, children’s fables, interviews, co-authored narrative, memoir, manifesto, apology. A number of the essays perform, through a combination of recollected early memory alongside scholarly research, the roots of the theories they explore through publishing, curating and archival work.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eMany of the contributors embody overlapping cultural diasporas that suggest the porousness of borders, challenging the field to understand itself as a product of regional art histories. Collecting this range of narratives born from different workplaces and disciplines speaks to our belief in the potential boundlessness of the art histories that shape the stories we consume.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eStorytellers of Art Histories\u003c\/em\u003e brings together the first-person narratives of an international group of art historians, curators, artists and archivists. This much-needed book book fills a significant gap in the literature, showing how these practitioners’ works come together productively in the teaching and writing of art history. The anthology also illuminates the relationship between curatorial studies and art history.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003ePrimary readership will include artists, art historians, archivists, curators and educators. It will be a useful resource for educators and students connected with undergraduate courses in art history, contemporary art history and curatorial and museum studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eINTRODUCTION: THE STORY BEHIND STORYTELLERS\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAlpesh Kantilal Patel and Yasmeen Siddiqui\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eESSAYS\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eNana Adusei-Poku\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eMichelle Antoinette\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eRegine Basha\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAbby Chen\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eDelinda Collier\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eParul Dave-Mukherji\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eJane Chin Davidson\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAllan deSouza\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eClaire Farago and Donald Preziosi\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eJosh T Franco\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChitra Ganesh\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eDavid J.
