Weiwei Ai: On Censorship

On Censorship

Using autoethnography, this book answers the Black feminist call to talk back to systems of oppression and highlight agency and resistance of Black women. Editors Geniece Crawford Mondé and Ebonie Cunningham Stringer explore the varied ways in which Black Feminism is understood, applied, and expressed across disciplinary backgrounds. Drawing from the perspectives of both academics and scholar-practitioners, they examine how these paradigms bear relevance on timely issues, like socially-engaged scholarship, work-life balance, and navigating challenging social, academic, and political contexts. This book is divided into five thematic sections. Part one examines Black Feminism as a tool for liberatory pedagogical praxis. Part two creates a space for Black women whose work and experiences both inform and extend the Black Feminist perspective beyond the United States. Part three provides insight into the factors that shape Black women's most important relationships and the conflicting priorities that compete for their attention. Part four explores how Black women are able to incorporate their ideals into their professional workplace. Part five highlights the ways in which Black Feminism emerges from and is sustained within communities. By bringing these perspectives together, Mondé, Stringer, and the contributors critically examine the complex ways in which Black Feminist scholarship has continued to shape our understanding of the world today.

Spaces for Resistance

A reprint of the sold-out 2007 first edition with a new introduction, Mapping Water embraces uncharted artistic terrains.&nbsp;Tuwaletstiwa writes, “In this vast desert, a thin membrane separates the daily world and the world of spirit. This elemental landscape holds a deep reservoir of the unconscious, continually reminding me of the fragility and tenacity of life. Whether writing, painting, working with fiber, sand, or glass, I seek to embody the elusive images that emanate from the unconscious.”The first section in Mapping Water explores the etymology of the word “genesis” alongside paintings that relate (and don’t relate) to parts of the text, evoking thoughts on the “genesis” of ideas. Subsequent sections continue this exploration with content that varies from the deconstruction of an iconic Holocaust photograph to the construction of a series using feathers and bones to honor the spirit of a dead crow.

On the two-hundredth anniversary of Frederic Edwin Church’s birth, leading scholars explore how his wide-ranging work continues to resonate in today’s world &nbsp; The work of Frederic Edwin Church (1826–1900), renowned American landscape painter, was indelibly shaped by global travel. Church’s art was defined by place: early trips took him to South America, across the northeastern United States, and to the Arctic; later he visited the Caribbean, Europe, and the Middle East; in his final decades, he spent long sojourns in Mexico. Intimate drawings and oil sketches executed on-site illuminate his encounters with new environments and cultures; large, extravagantly detailed paintings produced for public exhibition made him internationally famous. The designed landscapes, extensive collections, and striking architecture of his home, Olana, in the Hudson Valley, reflect the many worlds through which he traveled. &nbsp; In Frederic Church: Global Artist, original essays by scholars from across the humanities reveal Church as an artist enmeshed in the global economic and imperial ventures of the nineteenth century. Church’s works engage with questions of industrialization and environmental destruction, the rise and fall of empires, the construction of national identity, and the cataclysmic effects of slavery and civil war. This lavishly illustrated volume examines the artist in his time and demonstrates his continuing relevance in our own. &nbsp; Published in association with the Olana Partnership &nbsp; Exhibition Schedule: &nbsp; Olana NY State Historic Site (May 17–October 25, 2026)

A major reevaluation of a towering figure in twentieth-century art and the relationship of his sculpture to the crisis of nationalism in modern Europe &nbsp; Figures of Crisis examines the neglected decade of artwork that separates the surrealist experiments of Swiss artist Alberto Giacometti (1901–1966) from his iconic postwar sculptures, revealing the connection between a famous artistic crisis in modern art and the crisis of national identity in modern Europe. In 1935, Giacometti abruptly abandoned his early abstract objects and devoted himself to sculpting portrait busts and minuscule figurines, many no larger than a fingernail. Joanna Fiduccia reimagines this fragmentary and inconspicuous body of work as the pivotal phase in his career, which registered the erosion of interwar democratic values and the searching questions this period posed for the future of modern sculpture. &nbsp; Challenging previous explanations of Giacometti’s return to figuration, Fiduccia argues that his figures gave form to the experience of social breakdown during the rise of fascism through their turbulent surfaces, unsettling generality, dramatic reduction of scale, and compulsive repetition. This fresh account, told through the philosophical, political, and aesthetic thought of Giacometti’s time, shows how ideologies of nationalism generated the problems of selfhood at the heart of modernism.

An expansive consideration of the creative output of a unique twentieth-century master that brings a fresh perspective to his enigmatic and enduring work &nbsp; M. C. Escher (1898–1972) was born in the Netherlands and is known internationally for his self-described “mental images” that connect to mathematics and various branches of science. Considered a one-man art movement, he remained outside of the art establishment and is treasured today for his mind-bending works. His imagery explores the relationships between art and science, order and disorder, and logic and irrationality, and presents complex orchestrations of multidimensional alternate realities. &nbsp; Drawing from the Michael S. Sachs collection—the most extensive Escher holdings in the world—this overview of the artist’s work features more than five hundred objects, including prints, drawings, watercolors, printed fabrics, constructed objects, wood and linoleum blocks, lithographic stones, sketchbooks, and the artist’s working tools. Offering new insights into Escher’s iconic and idiosyncratic work, scholarly essays discuss the artist’s background and creative practice, examine the mathematical underpinnings of his use of geometric models, and ponder the ways his meticulously crafted images are filled with the element of wonder. &nbsp; Distributed for the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston

A reconsideration of Filippino Lippi’s transformative Roman period and the ensuing evolution of his innovative style, as reflected in his Holy Family tondo in Cleveland—a masterpiece that exemplifies this pivotal phase in his career &nbsp; Between 1488 and 1493, leading Florentine artist Filippino Lippi (ca. 1457–1504) relocated to Rome to complete his celebrated frescoes in the funerary chapel of Neapolitan cardinal Oliviero Carafa in the major Dominican church of Santa Maria Sopra Minerva. During this time, Filippino also painted a magnificent tondo for Carafa: The Holy Family with Saint John the Baptist and Saint Margaret. Focusing on this seminal work in his oeuvre, Filippino Lippi and Rome traces the arc of the painter’s artistic practice before, during, and after his Roman period, illuminating the evolution of his processes and iconographic ingenuities. This in-depth study presents new scholarship on the inspiration Filippino found in the Eternal City and how The Holy Family tondo—the only known independent work produced by Filippino in Rome—influenced artists from Raffaellino del Garbo to Jan Gossaert to Leonardo da Vinci. Moreover, the essays and catalogue entries in this volume draw on recent technical analyses that had, for the first time, revealed the tondo’s underdrawing and pentimenti, shedding new light on Filippino’s painting techniques. These texts are accompanied by a chronicle of the work’s rediscovery at the start of the nineteenth century and the dramatic turn of events that led to its acquisition by the Cleveland Museum of Art in 1932. &nbsp; Distributed for the Cleveland Museum of Art &nbsp; Exhibition Schedule: &nbsp; Cleveland Museum of Art (November 30, 2025–February 22, 2026)
