The book brings together artists and thinkers in a conversation about global migration, delving into its cultural impact and the culture of migration itself. Individual voices offer diverse perspectives on the societal transformations associated with migration and its representation in 21st-century art. The featured artworks, spanning various mediums such as painting, sculpture, photography, installation, video, and sound art, are created by artists from around the world, including Isaac Julien, Richard Mosse, Reena Saini Kallat, Yinka Shonibare MBE, and Do Ho Suh, among many others. Expert texts in political science, Latin American studies, and human rights, as well as contemporary art, provide further context and analysis of the political, economic, and social aspects of migration and its representation. Additionally, the book includes three conversations in which artists discuss the complexities of making work about migration. In the midst of global tensions surrounding refugee crises and border security, this publication offers a nuanced interpretation of the current cultural moment. It intertwines themes of memory, home, activism, and more, reflecting on how art shapes and is shaped by the public discourse on migration. When Home Wont Let You Stay is published in association with the Institute of Contemporary Art\/Boston and will be on exhibition at various institutions throughout 2019 and 2020, including the Institute of Contemporary Art\/Boston, the Minneapolis Institute of Art, and the Iris \u0026amp; B.
