Painting/Politics/Photography: Marlene Dumas, Mme Lumumba and the Image of the African Woman
This essay looks at the politics of portrayal, photography and figuration in relation to the colonial/apartheid archive. It focuses on the Dutch/South African artist Marlene Dumas's reworking of a selection images – both personal and public – in order to question contemporary painting's capacity to deal with history, and in particular its spectacular or photogenic trace. By using the painted reworking of both her old school photograph as well as …

Ranging in scope from photography to style to dress and to the problem of fakes,…

For me it was the text that described most compellingly how the process of looking was imbricated with power relationships and, inevitably, with politics. It opened up questions of the relationship between eroticism and power, spectacle and authority, and of the way in which th…
