A Cry from the Narrow Between: Eros and Thanatos in the Works of Tejal Shah and Han Bing

Volume 9, Number 6, November/December 2010
by Maya Kovskaya


Article Description

Maya Kóvskaya’s text focuses on the work of Han Bing, from Beijing, and Tejal Shah, from Mumbai, and proposes that an expanded notion of the erotic can productively challenge “normative” social and political order and embrace what it means to be truly human.
