Mobility And Migration In Film And Moving Image Art: Cinema Beyond Europe
Tags: Nilgun Bayraktar

Joining attention to aesthetic experimentation with a focus on sociopolitical concerns, "Mobility and Migration in Film and Moving Image Art "offers a detailed account of the ways recent cinematic and artistic works engage Europe s increasingly diverse and complex relationship to migration. With a focus on projects that explore the sociopolitical tensions that have surrounded migration in Europe since the 1990s, Nilgun Bayraktar draws on theories of migrant and diasporic cinema, projected image art, and mobility studies to provide historically situated close readings of films, videos, and cinematic installations that concern migratory networks, infrastructures, and places across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
