This insightful and interdisciplinary book considers the movement of people around the world and how contemporary artists contribute to our understanding of it. Artists and thinkers join in conversation around the topic of global migration, examining both its cultural impact and the culture of migration itself. Individual voices shed light on the societal transformations related to migration and its representation in 21st-century art, offering diverse points of entry into this massive phenomenon and its many manifestations.
The featured artworks range from painting, sculpture, and photography to installation, video, and sound art, and their makers―including Mona Hatoum, Isaac Julien, Richard Mosse, Reena Saini Kallat, Yinka Shonibare MBE, and Do Ho Suh, among many others―hail from around the world. Texts by experts in political science, Latin American studies, and human rights, as well as contemporary art, expand upon the political, economic, and social contexts of migration and its representation. The book also includes three conversations in which artists discuss the complexity of making work about migration.
Amid worldwide tensions surrounding refugee crises and border security, this publication provides a nuanced interpretation of the current cultural moment. Intertwining themes of memory, home, activism, and more, When Home Won’t Let You Stay meditates on how art both shapes and is shaped by the public discourse on migration.

Excellent book, quick delivery
I have ordered from Books About Art several times now. Every time I’ve ordered the books have arrived promptly and in great condition. The choice on the website has been fantastic and I have enjoyed discovering some wonderful books that I haven’t seen elsewhere. This has become my first stop for great art books and the newsletter has been brilliant at recommending new titles.

I love my book and had a wonderful experience with this company. Great selection of books, excellent customer service and quick shipping. Will definitely order again. Thank you!
I had a great experience with Books about art. I managed to get a range of beautiful coffee table books for a very reasonable price. Delivery and service was quick and efficient.
Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Very fast shipping from a reputable courier with tracking and very well packed as requested, which was particularly important given the rarity of the signed book. Book exactly as described and as shown in the photos. I’d happily order again with confidence.
Great books! Fast delivery! I am enjoying reading all the classics I got on Architecture!
I love this site. The books are great, the pricing is unmatched, and the delivery is always prompt. There is nothing more that could be expected.
Cannot fault the quality of the three books I purchased, or the service, which was very prompt. I've only recently discovered Books About Art, and it's a great site for browsing owing to some really interesting titles that I wouldn't normally look for. Also good discounts ... hence I purchased two more books than intended. Will be back for more!
Excellent books! Great packaging and speedy delivery too.
Thanks for subscribing!
