(Ebook) Second Skin: Josephine Baker & the Modern Surface by Anne Anlin Cheng ISBN 9780195387056, 0195387058

Through the figure of Josephine Baker, Second Skin tells the story of an unexpected yet enduring intimacy between the invention of a modernist style & the theatricalization of black skin at the turn of the twentieth century. 

Stepping outside of the platitudes surrounding this iconic figure, Anne A. Cheng argues that Baker's famous nakedness must be understood within larger philosophic & aesthetic debates about, & desire for, 'pure surface' that crystallized at the convergence of modern art, architecture, machinery, & philosophy. 

Through Cheng's analysis, Baker emerges as a central artist whose work engages with & impacts various modes of modernist display such as film, photography, art, & even the modern house.
