Description

Empire explores the complex and often fraught relationship between Britain's imperial history and its national collection of art. Afua Hirsch examines how artists from Britain and around the world have responded to the legacies of war, conquest and slavery.

The book delves into the ways in which the dramas, tragedies and experiences of the Empire continue to shape our present and future. Through a nuanced and thought-provoking analysis, Hirsch sheds light on the diverse and often contradictory ways in which artists have engaged with the Empire's history.

With its unique blend of art history, cultural critique and personal reflection, Empire offers a fresh and insightful perspective on a topic that remains highly provocative in twenty-first century Britain.
