| Research Abstract |
The result of the project has been summarized in my doctoral dissertation, “Senses of History: Colonial Memories, Works of Art, and Heterogeneous Community in America’s Asia-Pacific since 1945” which was submitted to the University of Southern California in 2012. Overall, the project attempted to critically intervene into the current frame of postcolonial studies by foregrounding the role aesthetic forms and mediations play in opening up heretofore non-existent forms of “community” that cannot be subsumed by currently existing norms governing subject formation (subjectivation). To that end, this study analyzed authors and artists who have often been classified as “Asian” or “Anglo” and sought the ways in which these authors/artists creatively and persistently resisted such terms of racialization and subectivation in their efforts to instantiate a “partage” of memories.
