SUMMARY:Portraiture and Enslavement at the Thresholds of Emancipatio
 n (A Caribbean Meditation)
DESCRIPTION:This talk will address the only two extant oil portraits of 
 enslaved women produced during the periods of emancipation i
 n the French- and Spanish-speaking Caribbean. By underscorin
 g the conflictive political and ideological forces\, affectiv
 e dynamics\, and aesthetic principles at work in their compos
 ition\, it will focus on the conditions that made possible th
 e visual configuration of black people as subjects of freedo
 m and on its problematic re-articulation of the boundaries b
 etween the human and the animal.
