Globalization, Culture, and Identity

Thursday, October 11, 2012 4:30 PM EDT
Johnson Center, Assembly Room B

Our interactive world can take a creative product, such as a Hollywood film, Bollywood song, or Latin American telenovela, and transform it into a source of cultural anxiety. What does this artwork say about the artist or the world she works in? How will these artworks evolve in the global market? Film, music, television, and the performing arts enter the same networks of exchange as other industries, and the anxiety they produce informs a fascinating area of study for art, culture, and global politiics.

Global affairs professor J.P. Singh presents this topic as part of the 2012-12 Conversation series in the Cultural Studies Colloquium.

Hosted by Cultural Studies Student/Faculty Colloquium, George Mason University.
