Carol Magee’s article, “‘400 Men of African Descent’: Negotiating Racialised Identities at the Seattle Art Museum,” is published in the September volume of Third Text: Critical Perspectives on Contemporary Art & Culture.
The journal is the top journal in postcolonial theory in the art world, and its advisory council includes such luminaries as Laura Mulvey, Gayatri Spivak and Slavoj Zizek.
Magee’s article explores the conflation of Africans and African Americans in American museums and the implications of that for issues of race.
