The "Third Text" Reader on Art, Culture and Theory by Ziauddin Sardar

"Third Text" is a journal on art in global context. Challenging received notions of art practice, art history, popular media and cultural theory, "Third Text" has never been content to accept the claims of anti-racism, multiculturalism or postcoloniality. It has championed new artists from five continents, and is designed to raise the critical temperature and the political stakes for art and cultural practice in the age of globalization. This reader brings together essays by critics in global art and cultural studies, but also writings by new voices which emerged in the last decades of the 20th century. Divided into sections - history, representation, identity, film, "post" theory, globalization - the reader is aimed at students and teachers of art, cultural studies, media studies, postcolonialism and globalisation.
Third Text is always ahead of the times - it points at the way out when critique becomes fashion Gayatri Spivak Third Text is like a skylight - one can look upwards through it and one can see by it John Berger
Edited by Ziauddin Sardar, City University, Sean Cubitt, University of Waikato, and Rasheed Araeen, editor of Third Text.
