Queen Victoria on the Move: Hew Locke’s Hinterland
This essay examines the artwork Hinterland (2013), a painted photograph of the statue of Queen Victoria in Georgetown, Guyana, by Hew Locke, a Guyanese Scottish artist. Inspired by the global movement against colonial symbols ignited by the Rhodes Must Fall and Black Lives Matter protests in 2015 and 2020, respectively, which saw the toppling of statues of colonial figures, the essay explores the themes of void, surface, invisibility, and visibil…
Decolonizing the Global North university: Host-guest dynamics and the limits of hospitality
This article critically assesses the hospitality premise on which the project-practice of decolonizing the curriculum rests, investigating the texture and limitations of the hospitality that Global North universities seem willing to offer their many Others, including students, staff, and stakeholders, particularly in the form of knowledges and pedagogies. It investigates how the guests-strangers are treated within the Global North Universities, t…
Unlearning Imperialism Through Artistic Remediation: A Critical Pedagogy Approach
Analysing art that emerges from remediation can be a form of critical pedagogy in and of itself. This article focuses on art forms that involve remediation as a strategy of the critical pedagogy of "unlearning imperialism" (Azoulay 2019). The aim is to examine the role of the adaptive process of artistic remediation (by which new media technologies incorporate, reinterpret, and reference older media forms) in conceptualising and developing a crit…

When the People Behind the Scenes Come to the Fore: Touristic Venues as Zones of Visual Clash
In this essay, the notion of “the people behind the scenes” is used to build a bridge between the cognitive framework of film studies and migration research to describe those who are discursively categorized as “illegal” or “irregular” migrants and whose lives are exploited in the workforce and at risk in “Fortress Europe”. As a natural southern border of the Schengen area, the Mediterranean region sometimes offers fleeting encounters between “il…
Visuality and Parrēsia: Ai Weiwei’s countervisual re-enactment of Alan Kurdi’s image
As an intervention in the study of visuality and countervisuality (Mirzoeff 2011), underscoring its connection to democracy and parrēsia (Foucault 2010), this article examines Ai Weiwei’s re-enactment of Alan Kurdi’s image in 2016. The instant and expandable polemics that characterized the reception of the re-enactment built on the unethicalness – even blatant inappropriateness – of a celebrity’s appropriation of (the graphic representation of) a…
Hospitality and Amnesty: Aravind Adiga's Narrative of Legal Liminality
Amnesty continues several of the social justice themes of precarity and subalternity (at times, a violent subaltern agency) of Aravind Adiga’s fiction, and its literary narrative centres again on criminal acts and the moral dilemma the protagonist faces over whether to report a murder and expose his illegality to do “the right thing.” Offering a postcolonial reading of Amnesty supported by concepts from migration, citizenship, and human rights st…
Wither the plurality of decolonising the curriculum? Safe spaces and identitarian politics in the arts and humanities classroom
Contributing to the debate on decolonising the curriculum, this reflective article questions: What does a safe space in a decolonised classroom mean? For whom is it safe? And at what cost? Must we redraw the parameters of ‘safe’? Prompted by a real-life ‘n-word incident’ in the classroom, this article unpacks the collision of decolonising the curriculum to continue making teaching and learning more pluriversal and inclusive, with the enactment of…
The accentual dialogized heteroglossia of Shakespeare in India: Utpal Dutt’s legacy in Shakespeare Wallah and The Last Lear
This article focuses on a key figure of Shakespearean performance in pre- and post-independence India: the Bengali stage and film actor, director, playwright, and theater activist Utpal Dutt (1929–1993). I trace Dutt’s impact from his tours in the aftermath of independence with the Shakespeareana Company and his re-playing of Shakespeare in the Bengali Jatra tradition, through Rituparno Ghosh’s 2007 The Last Lear. This focus on Dutt’s influence i…
The Louvre going Apeshit: Audiovisual re-curation and intellectual labour in The Carters' Afrosurrealist music video
This article offers a reading of the APESHIT music video by the duo The Carters (Beyoncé and Jay-Z) as an Afrosurrealist intervention in the White space of the Louvre. Against the backdrop of calls for decolonizing archives and public institutions such as the university and the museum, and arguing for the political potential of APESHIT, this article makes a case for the music video as an act of resistance against the enduring ‘coloniality of powe…
From 'Crisis' to Imagination: Putting White Heroes Under Erasure Post-George Floyd
In the immediate aftermath of George Floyd's murder on May 25, 2020, global protests against racialized police brutality targeted statues and other public art forms symbolizing racism. Either framed as a 'weird global media event' or 'global iconic event,' Floyd's murder forced a reckoning with histories of oppression and systemic racism, with a potential enduring social effect and a transnational historical significance by inviting resonance and…
Urban redevelopment, the new logics of expulsion, and individual precarity in Kleber Mendonça Filho's Aquarius and Aravind Adiga's Last Man in Tower
Drawing on Kleber Mendonça Filho's film Aquarius (2016) and Aravind Adiga's novel Last Man in Tower (2011), this article is concerned with the impact on individuals and communities of forms of impersonal, systemic violence resulting from neoliberal accumulation and the reproduction of mobile capital, extending existent precarities as well as opening up new precarities. We examine the experiences of the previously less precarious - that is, member…
The precarious lives of India's Others: The creativity of precarity in Arundhati Roy's The Ministry of Utmost Happiness
This article traces the agency of Arundhati Roy’s precariat in The Ministry of Utmost Happiness. In her novel, Roy focuses on how those in the most precarious of social positions manage to retain a toehold within the system by defiant creativity, lateral thinking and alternative living. Roy’s precariat reacts not with a desperate clutching at the assumed securities of social life, but counter-intuitively, audaciously taking on more precarity, thu…
A postcolonial framing of international commercial gestational surrogacy in India: Re-orientalisms and power differentials in Meera Syal’s The House of Hidden Mothers
The branding and marketing of post-millennial India as a global service provider has been relentless. Indian cities have now been de-exoticized from their previous association to elephants, snake-charmers, and slums, and are now being marketed as the hub of Global North medical infrastructure and scientific advancement, at attractive Global South rates. Legalized only in 2002, international commercial gestational surrogacy (ICGS) in India, a lucr…
The liquidscape of Mare Nostrum: Manoel de Oliveira and Banksy’s Mediterranean crossings
The Mediterranean Sea has never ceased to be of geopolitical strategic importance, but its presence in the mediascape has grown in prominence since 2010, in what has been labelled as the Mediterranean ‘crisis’. Drawing on an understanding of the Mediterranean Sea as a discursive space of political, economic and cultural identity conflicts, this article moves excursively from A Talking Picture (Um Filme Falado), a 2003 film directed and written by…
Introduction: Navigating with the Blackstar: the mediality of David Bowie
Despite the death of David Jones, David Bowie continues to shine with a distinctive luminosity and navigational function. He shines in absence and in repetition in various venues, as on a wall in Turnpike Lane. Our approach to this special issue of Celebrity Studies is framed by the idea that a social, cultural, ideological and semiotic understanding of stardom is entirely fitting for an examination of David Bowie and his legacy. Building on prev…
The Eruption and Ruination of 'Rising India: Rana Dasgupta's Capital and the temporalities of Delhi in the 2010s
In 2000, the writer Rana Dasgupta moved from New York to Delhi, reversing his father's act of migration in the 1960s, to find a new, but already obsolescent, 'rising India'. This was the India of the economic boom, whose extent and import have been increasingly under scrutiny. With reference to the temporalities of 'rising India', the purpose of this article is to examine the representation of globalization's multiple temporalities in Dasgupta's …
The conjunctural spaces of 'new India: Imagined geographies of 2010s India in representations by returnee migrants
Focusing on returnee Indian authors, this article contributes to analytical perspectives on imagined geographies. We map the imagined geographies of 2010s Delhi and India as experienced and created by Indian returnee migrant authors, drawing on the hybrid nonfiction works India Becoming: A Portrait of Life in Modern India by Akash Kapur and Capital: The Eruption of Delhi by Rana Dasgupta. Juxtaposed, these texts sited on the borderline between fi…
Neo-Victorian slumming on screen
In ways that directly implicate audiences in practices of consumption, an adaptation of a neo-Victorian novel set in the late-Victorian London East End, whose main character is a prostitute, dovetails the idea of city streets as places of consumption with the neo-Victorian interest in sexploitation. The Crimson Petal and the White (2011, BBC Two) is one such adaptation belonging to a larger group of recent British TV series which gaze, episode af…
Remembering and fictionalizing inhospitable Europe: The experience of Portuguese retornados in Dulce Maria Cardoso’s The Return and Isabela Figueiredo’s Notebook of Colonial Memories
At a time when issues of migration, both voluntary and forced, are rife, it is vital to further unpack the politics and poetics of hospitality as a complex discourse of inclusion and exclusion, belonging and alienation, welcoming and rejection. Situated within the framework of Derridean thought on hospitality, this article examines Dulce Maria Cardoso's O Retorno (The return, 2011) and Isabela Figueiredo's Caderno de Memórias Coloniais (Notebook …

Introduction: Victorians Like Us–Domesticity and Worldliness
In response to Lytton Strachey’s remark that the history of the Victorian Age would never be written because we know too much about it (9), one can argue that the greater our temporal distance to the Victorians is, the more we appear to be interested in them. As Dianne F. Sadoff and John Kucich have noted about this persistent preoccupation, “the Victorian age [is] historically central to late-century postmodern consciousness” (Kucich and Sadoff …
Showcasing India Unshining: Film Tourism in Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire
Cinematic representations of Indian poverty have been by and large open to allegations of aestheticising and showcasing squalor for artistic and/or commercial purposes. The purpose of this article is not to reiterate these in relation to Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire, but to attempt a critical analysis of the film that reaches beyond the supposedly romanticised images of photogenic and picturesque poverty themselves to scrutinise the modes of…
