Reseña del editor:
Andrew Gilbert's cartoon-ish history paintings dramatize British colonialism in India and Africa, through depictions of clashes in the Hindu Kush, the Zulu wars and in Amritsar. This smartly designed volume gathers Gilbert's grotesque, surreal and sometimes violent narratives, produced over the past two years.

Descripción Pp. Condición: Gut. 112 S. : zahlr. Ill. ; 31 cm Sauberes und frisches Exemplar in sehr gutem Zustand. Zweisprachige Ausgabe (English/Deutsch). "Andrew Gilbert's cartoon-ish history paintings dramatize British colonialism in India and Africa, through depictions of clashes in the Hindu Kush, the Zulu wars and in Amritsar. This smartly designed volume gathers Gilbert's grotesque, surreal and sometimes violent narratives, produced over the past two years." "The relationship between personal and official histories is of central relevance to GIlbert's work. An Emporer of Africa has never existed in fact, bu the can exist in art and creating him is a mighty feat. Africa is a vast continent populated with countless cultural groups, many distinct terrains, and complex networks of resource distribution. Only a madman would attempt to conquer it. And many did. And still do. But Andrew's conquest is both more fantastical and more realistic. For what he masters are the images of campaigns, the historical brutality, and the outlandish stereotypes of 'primitive' natives whose lives are torn asunder bz the 'civilized' colonizers. What Andrew shows us is the significance of the imagery to the audience for whom it is generated and the impossibility of controlling its interpretations. There is an implication here that pictures inform an ideology which supports imperial missions abroad, both past and present. Yzet the imagery in these paintings is inherently unstable and subject to any number of interpretations. By presenting colonial hisotry in vivdly personal and scatological terms, Andrew has truly conquered, not just Africa but the colonial self."
