Description: The Migrant Image offers a sophisticated analysis of how refugee and exiled artists imagine a globalized world where borders are shifting, populations are forcibly removed from their homelands, and the gap separating the rich from the poor is growing.
Review Quotes: "Framing contemporary artworks dealing with the theme of migration within the twenty-first century context of 'crisis globalization, ' Demos engages with a growing and interdisciplinary body of scholarship on neoliberalism and uneven development. The book's main intervention, however, is within the subfield of global contemporary art history, where it will serve as a very useful text for students, researchers, critics, and curators concerned with the relationship between art and politics in the post-September 11 era." --Tammer Salah El-Sheikh "Arab Studies Journal"
