Also featured: Morgan Quaintance surveys a century of ‘slavesploitation’ cinema, asking whether Steve McQueen’s 12 Years a Slave has finally exorcised Hollywood’s racist past; Amy Sherlock explores the work of Magali Reus, one of a group of young, London-based artists exploring sleek surfaces and abject bodies; and Agnieszka Gratza looks at phantoms and immaterial labour in the films of Agnieszka Kurant.
