Twenty years ago, Phaidon published what has
become the definitive study of Arkansas-born
Jimmie Durham's career. This highly anticipated
new edition brings this important book
up to date, tracing his remarkable life from his
experiences in the US, Mexico, and Europe -
including his early involvement with the
American Indian Movement - to his most
recent output. It presents a full assessment
of his sculptures, performances, wall-based
collages, and ersatz ethnographic displays,
that deliver ironic assaults on the colonizing
procedures of Western culture.
