Klappentext

History as unfinished business--a definitive guide for an artist's recent practice

Between 2005 and 2019, Hong Kong-born Australian artist John Young Zerunge created eleven art series that he called "The History Projects." This book is a critical guide to this expansive body of artworks, which explore diasporic memory, transcultural identity, and what Young describes as an "ethical responsibility" toward the past. Featuring more than four hundred images and a wide variety of texts--including new essays and interviews, key republished articles, poetry, artist's reflections, and diary pages--this book is a definitive reference for Young's transformative recent practice and its urgent reckoning with history as unfinished business.
