Résumé : Edited and published by Rasheed Araeen and Mahmood Jamal between 1978 and 1979 in the UK, Black Phoenix remains a key and radical document of transnational solidarity and cultural production in the fields of visual art, literature, activism, and beyond. This publication compiles all three issues of the journal into a single volume. More than a decade after the liberation movements of the 1960s and the historic Bandung and Tricontinental Conferences, which called for social and political alignment and solidarity among the nations of Africa, Asia, and Latin America in order to dismantle Western imperialism and (neo)colonialism, Black Phoenix issued a rallying cry for the formation of a liberatory arts and culture movement throughout the Third World. International in scope, Black Phoenix positioned diasporic and colonial histories at the center of an evolving anti-racist and anti-imperialist consciousness in late 1970s Britain and beyond - one that would yield complex and nuanced discourses of race, class, and postcolonial theory in the decade that followed. Black Phoenix proposed a horizon for Blackness that transcended racial binaries, across the Third World and the West. Contributors include art critics, scholars, artists, poets, and writers, including Rasheed Araaen (Pakistan) and Mahmood Jamal (Pakistan), Guy Brett (UK), Kenneth Coutts-Smith (UK), Ariel Dorfman (Chile), Eduardo Galeano (Uruguay), N. Kilele (Tanzania), Babatunde Lawal (Nigeria), David Medalla (Philippines), Ayyub Malik (Pakistan), Susil Siriwardena (Sri Lanka), and Chris Wanjala (Kenya)

Résumé : Glam emerged in the early 1970s and remains one of the most instantly recognisable - but critically derided - stylistic phenomena of 20th century art and culture. This book is a prism through which to view and refract artistic developments in Europe and North America, shedding new ligh on the extravagance of art, performance and visual culture at this time.Foreword -- The politics of artiface / Darren Pih -- For your pleasure : the quest for glamour in British fashion 1969-1972 / Judith Watt -- Cross gender / cross genre / Mike Kelley -- The rift of retro : 1962? or twenty years on? / Simon Reynolds -- Rocking while Rome burns : the politics of glam / Alwyn W.
