About the Book:
Unmarked offers a controversial analysis of the complex relationship between political and representational visibility in contemporary culture. Written with a feminist psychoanalytic perspective, the book critically examines how visibility politics play out in various art forms, including photography, painting, film, theatre, and even anti-abortion demonstrations.
