How does pop art translate across cultures? What does pop art look like through a post-colonial lens? This collection, co-published by Iniva and The MIT Press, casts new light on the aesthetics and politics of pop by bringing cross-cultural perspectives to focus on the shifting boundaries of ‘high’ and ‘low’ across different national and international contexts. Essays by: Holly Barnet-Sanchez, Gavin Butt, Geeta Kapur, Martina Koppel-Yang, Kobena Mercer, Colin Richards, Sonia Salzstein, Tomas Ybarra-Frausto Artists include: Shirley Clarke, Robert Colescott, Antonio Dias, Wang Guangyi, David Hammons, Bhupen Khakhar, David Koloane, Esther Mahlangu, Amalia Mesa-Bains, Zwelethu Mthethwa, Shen Raoyi, Betye Saar, Teddy Sandoval, Wu Shanzhuan, Durant Sihlali, Larry Yanez
