A collection of essays by art historians, anthropologists and commentators on contemporary visual culture on the theme of 'Location'.

  • Explores the theme of 'Location', including transatlantic exchanges and global connections, and the nature of hospitality that arises in acknowledging migration and diaspora
  • Questions how important location is in producing, understanding and curating art.
  • Contributors consider such topics as site-specificity, examinations of the trans-national/trans-cultural, how images/visual forms migrate, and the repositioning of ownership
