商品描述

This book examines labour in the age of US hegemony through the art that has grappled with it; and, vice versa, developments in American culture as they have been shaped by work's transformations over the last century. Describing the complex relations between cultural forms and the work practices, Art, Labour and American Life explores everything from Fordism to feminization, from whitecollar ascendency to zero hours precarity, as these things have manifested in painting, performance art, poetry, fiction, philosophy and music. Labour, all but invisible in cultural histories of the period, despite the fact most Americans have spent most of their lives doing it, here receives an urgent re-emphasis, as we witness work's radical redefinition across the world.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書透過與美國霸權時代勞動相關的藝術，探討勞動的議題；反之亦然，分析美國文化在過去一世紀中如何受到勞動變遷的影響。《藝術、勞動與美國生活》描述了文化形式與工作實踐之間的複雜關係，探討從福特主義到女性化、從白領上升到零工不穩定等現象，這些都在繪畫、表演藝術、詩歌、小說、哲學和音樂中有所體現。儘管大多數美國人一生中大部分時間都在勞動，但在該時期的文化歷史中，勞動幾乎是隱形的；在此，我們迫切地重新強調勞動的重要性，因為我們見證了全球範圍內工作概念的根本重塑。
