Description

Cannibal Culture by Deborah Root examines how Western art and commerce appropriate, pigeonhole, and commodify cultural difference across societies. Through incisive analysis of seemingly ordinary events - from Navajo-style blankets in Arizona homes to operatic performances in New York theatres - Root reveals the complex mechanisms by which dominant Western institutions extract value from non-Western cultures. This Routledge publication explores the intersection of artistic practice and commercial interests, demonstrating how cultural commodification operates as a form of contemporary imperialism. Root, an art history instructor at Ontario College of Art and postcolonial theory specialist at the University of Toronto, brings academic rigour and critical insight to the study of how Western markets reshape and repackage cultural otherness for consumption. Essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the politics of representation, cultural appropriation, and the role of museums, galleries, and commercial spaces in perpetuating unequal power dynamics between Western and non-Western cultures.

Key Features

Deborah Root critically examines Western appropriation of non-Western cultural forms and their repackaging within art markets and institutional settings.

Cannibal Culture connects everyday consumption of cultural products to broader systems of commodification and colonial legacies.

Root's analysis draws on her expertise in postcolonial theory and art history, offering scholarly foundations for understanding cultural politics.

The book traces how Western commerce and artistic institutions extract economic and cultural value from differences they simultaneously marginalize.

Published by Routledge, this academic text serves scholars, students, and readers interested in cultural studies, art history, and postcolonial criticism.
