- Summary
- "Identity Theft asks some tough questions about the use and place of art in the early twenty-first century: How has it been appropriated as a form of advertising or corporate identity? How is it made the vehicle of novel nationalisms and historical re-inventions engineered by nation-states and their current ideologies of identity and cultural value? At the same time, with a cold eye, its contributors consider whether contemporary artists are in any position to resist these forms of incorporation, or even have any desire to."--Jacket.
