Cultural identity is the (feeling of) identity of a group of culture, or of an individual as far as she/he is influenced by her/his belonging to a group or culture (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/cultural identity)

visual politics means the way in which race, gender and ethnicity shape art practice; that is who makes art, how it sells, and who values it, who writes about it (Hooks, 1995, p.XIII).
