摘要

在1980年代定义“后现代”时刻的理论和实践中,我们如何定位种族/白人?本文通过仔细阅读格伦·利根(Glenn Ligon)的装置作品《黑皮书边缘笔记》(1991-93)来探讨这个问题。在这部作品中,利根重新演绎了罗伯特·梅普尔索普(Robert Mapplethorpe)拍摄的黑人(大部分是裸体的)照片,并附上了文本引用,讨论了梅普尔索普的作品和美国跨种族同性恋欲望的政治。在这里,引用和注释是对占有策略的替代。这篇文章提出,如果挪用是一种白人先锋派的手段,用来否定自由主义的作者概念,那么引用和注释是黑人和黑人作者的对位方式吗?答案是通过对19世纪和20世纪法国和美国版权法处理作者身份和黑人主体性的不同方式的审讯来寻求的。

The Race for Appropriation: Blackness, Authorship, and Ligon on Mapplethorpe∗
Abstract Where can we locate race/whiteness in theories and practices of appropriation—that defining practice of the “postmodern” moment of the 1980s? This article approaches the question through a close reading of Glenn Ligon's installation Notes on the Margin of the Black Book (1991–93). In this work, Ligon restages Robert Mapplethorpe's photographs of (mostly nude) Black men alongside textual quotations that discuss Mapplethorpe's work and the politics of interracial homo-erotic desire in the United States. Here, citation and annotation function as alternatives to appropriation's possessive strategy. The essay asks, if appropriation is a white avant-garde device for negating liberal notions of authorship, are citation and annotation its counterpoint for Blackness and Black authorship? The answer is sought through the interrogation of the different ways in which French and US copyright laws addressed authorship and Black subjectivity in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
