Reviews
" Repainting the Walls of Lunda reimagines how we write histories of post-colonial Africa, encouraging us to pay close attention to the material legacies of coloniality and modernization processes, and offering us a much-needed look at the complex entanglements of media with colonial/postcolonial and cold war narratives."--Elizabeth Harney, University of Toronto, "Collier's book is of particular interest to art historians, historians, media scholars, and cultural theorists for its conceptual framing, applied methodological approaches, and interpretative analysis. Collier offers new conceptual and methodological strategies for situating contemporary African art within longer histories of colonization and decolonization."-- H-Net Reviews "In addition to telling a fascinating story, Collier's book will no doubt furnish scholars from a variety of areas with substantial food for thought, if not concrete models for approaching their own research."-- Anlise Social "A unique insight into the limits of postcolonial escape from colonial structures of inequality and appropriations."-- Journal of Asian and African Studies "Collier debunks the developmental model that underpins media theory and modernist teleologies, habitually framing ideas of the medium along a narrative of innovation and obsolescence that is driven by technology and markets."-- Oxford Art Journal, "Collier's book is of particular interest to art historians, historians, media scholars, and cultural theorists for its conceptual framing, applied methodological approaches, and interpretative analysis. Collier offers new conceptual and methodological strategies for situating contemporary African art within longer histories of colonization and decolonization."-- H-Net Reviews
