Staged conflict

Carrie Mae Weems, A Class Ponders the Future, 2008

I conflitti sociali e razziali, trasformati in staged photography, video e installazioni multimediali, sono sempre stati al centro del lavoro di Carrie Mae Weems.
Constructing History. A Requiem to Mark the Moment è il titolo del suo ultimo libro (anche qui), dove rimette in scena momenti chiave della storia recente in forma di installazioni in interni, ironiche e ambigue icone del nostro presente.

Qui una lista dei libri della Weems, qui altre immagini.
