Beschreibung

Piper examines the social construction of race and Blackness through conceptual projects questioning her own identity
This book grows out of the first European retrospective in more than 20 years dedicated to celebrated Berlin-based American conceptual artist and Kantian philosopher Adrian Piper (born 1948). Race Traitor brings together more than 100 works including installations, videos, photographs, paintings and drawings spanning 60 years of her career, highlighting her analysis of the "visual pathology" of racism and the image of African American people determined by society and many widespread stereotypes. Established as a Conceptual and Minimalist artist on the New York art scene of the late 1960s, Piper raises often uncomfortable questions about politics and racial and gender identity, asking people to confront truths about themselves and the society in which they live. The permanent struggle against racism, xenophobia, social injustice and hatred is the core of her philosophical, artistic and activist practice. Her research has inspired entire generations of contemporary artists.
