Reviews
Monumental, expansive, and revelatory, Marking Time masterfully traces the connection between prisons and the art world. This book will define how the intersections of art, incarceration, and the fight for freedom are written about for decades to come., [An] ambitious book...Fleetwood deftly weaves personal narrative together with nuanced readings of artworks created by incarcerated people in order to illustrate how, in her own words, 'art in prison is a practice of survival, an aesthetic journey that documents time in captivity, a mode of connecting with others.'...She models how creative expression can build the coalitions necessary for imagining and realizing a more just society., [Fleetwood] brings together an impressive array of paintings, sculptures, murals, and photos that speak to the impact of incarceration on American life...In amplifying the stories of those marked by incarceration, she makes visible the individuals and families the carceral state has tried so hard to disappear and silence., Marking Time is an unprecedented work built over nearly a decade of connection with currently and formerly incarcerated artists, their families, and community organizations working with incarcerated artists...Fleetwood's care, delicacy, and rigor are a gift, and her ability to honor people subjected to incarceration is a guide for all readers, especially those trying to understand the life-shaping complexities of carceral systems., Illuminates the creative process of artists working behind bars...Incorporating the work of artists within several different mediums--from painting and sculpture, to photography and bricolage-- Marking Time explores how the creation of art in prison can disrupt institutionalized patterns of dehumanization....Makes visible the lives, experiences, and creativity of the incarcerated, a population which, despite being over two-million in size, remains largely either ignored or disparaged., Fleetwood leaves no stone unturned as she envelops the reader in an immersive and bristling study of what it takes to make art and survive in the age of mass incarceration. A groundbreaking, unique, and necessary work., Nicole Fleetwood's illuminating narrative centers and amplifies the brilliant aesthetic engagements of those most impacted by the carceral regime. Through stunningly original cultural analysis, visionary curation, and intellectual tenacity, Marking Time confronts the violence of captivity and propels readers toward a future without cages. This book is an extraordinary achievement., Illuminates the creative process of artists working behind bars... Incorporating the work of artists within several different mediums--from painting and sculpture, to photography and bricolage-- Marking Time explores how the creation of art in prison can disrupt institutionalized patterns of dehumanization... Makes visible the lives, experiences, and creativity of the incarcerated, a population which, despite being over two-million in size, remains largely either ignored or disparaged., Marking Time is a tremendous achievement that provides one of the most important discussions of prisons to date. Nicole Fleetwood illuminates the world of incarcerated artists and brings readers into their lives with powerful analysis and care. It is the kind of book that stays with you long after you finish, inspiring change in us all., The United States has the largest population of captive human beings on the planet, some 2.5 million, in a prison-industrial complex that constitutes a punitive universe walled off the larger world. What takes place behind those walls? Deprivation and cruelty, but also art, as we learn from this absorbing book., Fleetwood spent a decade researching the visual culture of the American penal system, and the product is as illuminating as it is heartbreaking., As Fleetwood writes in her book, one of the calculated effects of incarceration is the breaking down of the prisoner's sense of individuality and agency. Portraits, which are highly valued in prison communities, and self-portraits are an assertion of both...Her firsthand account of these realities, and their effect on her extended African-American family, forms the moving final chapter., The beauty in these often painful images (like Muhammad al Ansi's 2016 untitled painting of Alan Kurdi, the Syrian toddler who drowned as his family sought refuge across the Mediterranean) powerfully reclaims the visual idea of what it means to be imprisoned. Fleetwood seeks to revise the mainstream media narrative...by letting us see the diverse array of 'studio photos, handmade greeting cards, drawings and other pieces of art made by incarcerated people' that offer a story we on the outside have never really heard., In her groundbreaking and expansive book...Fleetwood has created something of a foundational index of prison art, an incisive guide to the multitudinous practices, aesthetics, styles, and conditions of art made by those in captivity. Fleetwood makes evident simultaneously the unique conditions of prison and the unique features of the art that is made there. Critically, Fleetwood's book frees this art, and these artists, from prison as a delimited and marginalizing niche.
