Download or read book Arrested Welcome written by Irina Aristarkhova and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interpreting the meaning of hospitality in an unwelcoming political moment Amid xenophobic challenges to America’s core value of welcoming the tired and the poor, Irina Aristarkhova calls for new forms of hospitality in her engagement with the works of eight international artists. In this first monograph on hospitality in contemporary art, Aristarkhova employs a feminist perspective to critically explore the artworks of Ana Prvački, Faith Wilding, Lee Mingwei, Kathy High, Mithu Sen, Pippa Bacca, Silvia Moro, and Ken Aptekar and asks who, how, and what determines who is worthy of our welcome. Spanning a diverse range of contemporary art practices, Arrested Welcome shows how artists challenge our existing notions of hospitality—culturally, philosophically, and politically. From the role of “microcourtesies” in social change to the portrayal of waiting as a feminist endeavor, Aristarkhova looks deeply into topics such as gender stereotypes of welcome, ways to reclaim civility, and the means by which guests (sometimes human, sometimes animal) push the limits of our hosting traditions. Blending a feminist analysis of hospitality with in-depth case studies on how contemporary artists stimulate personal reflection and political engagement, Aristarkhova initiates these important conversations at a critical time of national and international hospitality crises.

Don't miss the exciting conclusion to the Come-By-Chance saga! When Jane Waters comes pedaling into town, she cycles slap bang into corruption, catastrophe, and some increasingly curious conundrums — not to mention, right on into the heart of the beloved Come-By-Chance preacher, Ernest James Coy. For Jane, a modern late 19th Century woman, marriage is something she must avoid at all costs. Her heart belongs to her calling, for Jane is a writer — and no mere man can be allowed to stand in the way of that. Not even such a good man as the Come-By-Chance preacher. As for Ernest Coy himself, he sees the new woman in town as the wildest, most dangerous, and wonderful woman he's known. But these are dangerous times, and the preacher must face, not just one, but twomighty conundrums — conundrums that threaten the future of not just himself, not just Jane Waters, and not just the Come-By-Chance townsfolk.
