Memory matters. It matters because memory brings the past into the
present, and opens it up to the future. But it also matters
literally, because memory is mediated materially. Materiality is
the stuff of memory. Meaningful objects that we love (or hate)
function not only as aide-memoire but are integral to memory.
Drawing on previous scholarship on the interrelation of memory and
materiality, this book applies recent theories of new materialism
to explore the material dimension of memory in art and popular
culture. The book's underlying premise is twofold: on the one hand,
memory is performed, mediated, and stored through the material
world that surrounds us; on the other hand, inanimate objects and
things also have agency on their own, which affects practices of
memory, as well as forgetting. Chapter 1 of this book is freely
