It Hurts!

Violence against Women in Art and Psychoanalysis

Gendered Art Histories of Ibero-America and the Iberian Peninsula

Turning the Mirror

Bringing together diverse case studies and interdisciplinary perspectives, this open access collection serves as the first in-depth examination of queer and trans displacement in East Africa. The collection features original creative works by queer and trans diasporic writers and artists with first-hand experiences of displacement. The last decade has seen a sharp rise in state-sponsored homophobia and transphobia in East Africa. This includes discriminatory legislation, such as the widely condemned Anti-Homosexuality Act in Uganda, and government-initiated crackdowns, such as the 'anti-gay taskforce' launched in Tanzania in 2018. The politicisation of sexual and gender rights in the region is often presented as a moral crusade (i.e. a return to traditional/family values) and is enacted with the support of many religious and cultural leaders. It is within this context that an ever-increasing number of LGBTQI+ people are leaving their homes and seeking protection elsewhere. But East Africa cannot be reduced to a site from which LGBTQI+ displacement emanates. Several countries in the region act as either host countries or transit points, even as they produce LGBTQI+ refugees of their own. These complex social, political and legal dynamics make East Africa a productive site for theorising queer and trans displacement. The region offers insights into how, when and why LGBTQI+ Africans move, the social obstacles they face, and the different survival strategies they deploy. Despite this, research on East African queer and trans displacements remains sparse. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Bloomsbury Open Collections Library Collective.

East African Queer and Trans Displacements

Die erste offizielle Dokumentation, die sich des Themas annimmt und die Vergangenheit des Hamburger SV während der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus darlegt. Im Mittelpunkt dieses unter Mithilfe zahlreicher Autoren zustande gekommenen Bandes steht die Geschichte von Stürmer Otto "Tull" Harder und Mittelläufer Asbjörn Halvorsen. 1923 feiern sie zusammen die Deutsche Meisterschaft mit dem HSV - keine zwei Dekaden darauf sind sie beide im KZ: Harder als Kommandant, Halvorsen als Inhaftierter.

Painting Fantasy with Gouache

Classical Receptions in Twentieth-Century Writing

Reading Greek Tragedy with Judith Butler

Blazing Light&nbsp;is&nbsp;published to coincide with Mimi Plumb’s first solo museum exhibition of the same name (High Museum of Art, Atlanta, Georgia) and brings together three of her major bodies of work—The White Sky, Landfall and The Golden City,&nbsp;and&nbsp;The Reservoir—that collectively contemplate the anxieties of American life in the waning years of the Cold War and its aftermath. In the 1970s, Plumb began photographing as a teenager in the San Francisco suburb of Walnut Creek at a time marked by rapid development of the land coupled with global political and economic instability. Her early artistic life was defined by a burgeoning awareness of global warming, the AIDS epidemic, violent conflict in Latin America and the Middle East, and a looming threat of nuclear war. This atmosphere attuned Plumb to the evidence of such forces in the land, the built environment, and the ways people carry themselves and relate to one another—concerns that continue to abide in her work to this day. Plumb’s photographs foreground the presence of people, lending her images a greater degree of pathos and even notes of humorous absurdity. Though the artist embraces realism, her photographs are more ambient and enigmatic, inviting conjecture rather than providing documentary information. The publication will include texts by Gregory Harris, curator of the exhibition; Karen Irvine, chief curator and deputy director at the Museum of Contemporary Photography, Chicago, IL; and Lauren Richman, curator of photography at the Norton Museum of Art, West Palm Beach, FL. Plumb's work is held in numerous public collections, including the High Museum of Art (GA), San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (CA), Los Angeles County Museum of Art (CA), Museum of Fine Arts Boston (MA), Yale University Art Gallery (CT), and the Deutsche Börse Collection (Germany). The&nbsp;Mimi Plumb: Blazing Light&nbsp;exhibition will be on view at the High Museum of Art from February 6-May 5, 2026. The exhibition will then travel to the Johnson Museum at Cornell University, NY (summer 2026), the Norton Museum of Art in West Palm Beach, FL (winter 2026/2027), followed by the Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago, IL (spring 2027).

Mimi Plumb: Blazing Light

A vast and fascinating chronicle of how gender and sexuality has been used to divide people around the world over the last fifty years &gt;"New movements are alive and moving in the world. Human beings in struggle are creating new feminisms, changing sexualities, and defying genocide. Hope stalks the heart. We have written this book for these new movements." --from the introduction The Sexual Politics of Capitalism offers a groundbreaking examination of how the global elite has used gender, sexuality, and violence to maintain control. Anthropologist Nancy Lindisfarne and writer Jonathan Neale trace the devastating effects of these tactics, showing how issues of gender and sexuality have been weaponized, especially since the 1980s, to make inequality appear inevitable, keeping the powerful in power and the marginalized fighting for survival. Spanning the globe, Lindisfarne and Neale explore the lived experiences of those on the front lines of this struggle. From mass incarceration in the United States to the resilience of queer communities in China, from Black women's battles for AIDS medication in South Africa to the fight against toxic masculinity in world leaders like Putin, Modi, Trump, and Netanyahu, this book provides a sweeping yet deeply personal account of resistance. The authors draw connections between diverse movements--union women in Nicaragua, farmers' widows in India, and bar workers in Vietnam--showing how global forces of capitalism exploit gender and sexuality to maintain power. At the same time, The Sexual Politics of Capitalism shines a light on the ongoing revolts against sexual harassment, rape, and reproductive injustice, as well as the fight for trans rights in the United States. With meticulous research and a passionate call for change, The Sexual Politics of Capitalism is more than a history--it is a manifesto for liberation. The authors invite readers to feel the grief and rage sparked by decades of oppression but also the solidarity and hope inspired by the global movements rising up in response. This radical work challenges us to confront the intimate and structural forces shaping our world and to join the fight for a more just and equitable future.

This book explores the relationship between dissent and social media to understand the role both play in enacting cultural change.&nbsp;

The Role of Social Media in Facilitating Cultural Change

Dissent and Social Media

Does art have to be beautiful? What if it can be useful instead? In this cutting-edge book, John Byrne shows how the concept of 'Useful Art' is helping artists and communities fight back against the neoliberal takeover of our spaces, services and lives. Byrne demonstrates that networks of artist-led activism and community-based direct action can provide a collaborative playbook of impactful and inclusive alternatives. From Turner Prize-winning urban regeneration projects to bakeries, vegetable gardens and multi-use arts spaces, Useful Art has enormous potential for bringing people together, recovering and preserving local skills and knowledge and reclaiming artistic endeavour for real-world good. Exploring an international selection of projects, exhibitions and activism, this important new work champions the shift from aesthetics to use value, challenging traditional ways of seeing the world symbolically through art. Reaching beyond the financial logic of the art world, Byrne shows how Useful Art can offer an artistic toolkit for implementing radical change.

How Activist Artists Can Change the World

Useful Art

The first major biography on artist Louise Bourgeois brings the life and work of an iconic twentieth-century artist into sharp focus &nbsp; Louise Bourgeois (1911–2010) was one of the most important artists of the twentieth century. She is known for a body of work that spans sculpture, painting, and printmaking but eludes any aesthetic classification. Her life and art were so intertwined that it is often difficult to tell them apart. In her own words: “Sculpture is the body. My body is the sculpture.” &nbsp; Marie-Laure Bernadac’s biography of Bourgeois traces the career of a great artist, her training, and her influences, as it tells the story of an exceptional woman’s life. Featuring personal photographs as well as reproductions of her work, this landmark publication is the first major biography to draw on the artist’s unpublished personal archives, including diaries, correspondence, and psychoanalytic writings, as well as the many interviews she gave and the reminiscences of those who knew her. Bernadac elucidates Bourgeois’s friendships and rivalries with other major figures, including sculptor Louise Nevelson and Museum of Modern Art director Alfred H. Barr Jr. She also draws on Bourgeois’s well-known fascination with psychoanalysis to explore the deeply autobiographical nature of her artwork. This erudite and keenly insightful biography pays tribute to the talent of the artist and the complexity of the person.
