By examining matters of making, circulation, display, and reception, Caitlin Meehye Beach argues that sculpture stood as a highly visible but deeply unstable site from which to interrogate the politics of slavery. With focus on works by Josiah Wedgwood, Hiram Powers, Edmonia Lewis, John Bell, and Francesco Pezzicar, Beach uncovers both the radical possibilities and the conflicting limitations of art in the pursuit of justice in racial capitalism's wake.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Caitlin Meehye Beach\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520343263\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520343269\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.30h x 7.20w x 0.80d","brand":"Caitlin Meehye Beach","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44056228331775,"sku":"9780520343269","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_817a2b93-92ac-4dc8-b53c-152f6d35516b.jpg?v=1685040209","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sculpture-at-the-ends-of-caitlin-meehye-beach-9780520343269","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
