View through CrossRef
This introduction discusses the purpose and structure of the book. It also outlines McQueen’s career and his ongoing formal and thematic interests pursued across varied media formats. These include (i) an exploration of the power of haptic imagery and how it can contribute to an immersive experience for viewers (which often serves a critical engagement with race and racialisation) and (ii) his abiding self-reflexivity about image-making per se.
