Queering Contemporary Asian American Art takes Asian American
differences as its point of departure, and brings together artists
and scholars to challenge normative assumptions, essentialisms, and
methodologies within Asian American art and visual culture. Taken
together, these nine original artist interviews, cutting-edge
visual artworks, and seven critical essays explore contemporary
currents and experiences within Asian American art, including the
multiple axes of race and identity, queer bodies and forms, kinship
and affect, and digital identities and performances. Using the verb
and critical lens of "queering" to capture transgressive cultural,
social, and political engagement and practice, the contributors to
this volume explore the connection points in Asian American
experience and cultural production of surveillance states,
decolonization and diaspora, transnational adoption, and
transgender bodies and forms, as well as heteronormative
respectability, the military, and war. The interdisciplinary and
theoretically informed frameworks in the volume engage readers to
understand global and historical processes through contemporary
Asian American artistic production.
