Focusing on the formal and material innovations of current queer and feminist artists, Lex Morgan Lancaster attends to their drag on certain loaded modernist strategies-the hard edge, the grid, color, and the readymade-in order to draw out their social and political capacities and relevance for the present. The book offers comparative analysis between modernist and mid-century abstract artworks and their contemporary interlocutors, demonstrating how abstraction does queer work through visual and material processes of dragging that expose the violence of abstraction while at the same time exploding processes of categorization and signification. Dragging Away makes a methodological intervention in the field of art history by combining a politically-driven formalist and materialist analysis with queer, feminist, and critical race theories in order to take these artists' formal and material experimentations seriously as social and political praxis"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Art and society $z United States. 650 0 $a Art $x Political aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Modernism (Art) $z United States. 650 0 $a Art, Abstract $z United States. 650 0 $a Abstraction $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Homosexuality and art $z United States. 650 0 $a Feminism and art $z United States. 650 0 $a Art and race. 650 7 $a ART / History / Contemporary (1945-) $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / LGBTQ Studies / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Art, Abstract. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815850 650 7 $a Art and race. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815423 650 7 $a Art and society. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815432 650 7 $a Art $x Political aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815309 650 7 $a Feminism and art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922727 650 7 $a Homosexuality and art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00959813 650 7 $a Modernism (Art) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01024442 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 776 08 $i Online version: $a Lancaster, Lex Morgan, 1986- $t Dragging away. $d Durham : Duke University Press, 2022 $z 9781478023296 $w (DLC) 2021055914 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117030120.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=184C477E803411ED944134D030ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
