Description

The project examines transnational art and cultural politics as distinct fields of spatial and temporal reconfigurations of the postcolonial in Morocco. It investigates different modes in which gender, religion, ethnicity, language, class and nationality intersect in the shaping and transforming of visual regimes. Taking cases from film, performance and visual art in Morocco, the study examines the ways in which hegemonic images and orientalist traditions are both reproduced and transformed in different transnational formations.
