Description

Tracing the associations between artists, planners and engineers with and within the materials of our environment, this book introduces the relational theory of 'art worlding' as a way of coming to know our organic continuity. It explores how art practice can be a mode of inquiry and way of knowing, and how this can inform our understanding of the art-planning relationship. Through a series of ethnographies of the making and doing of art in urban and rural contexts, the author re-orientates the art-planning relationship, highlighting the potential of this relationship to understand relational continuity at different scales. This innovative approach integrates artistic practice within planning research, offering a new paradigm for the field of public art and for art and planning practice more broadly. This book will appeal to sociologists and social anthropologists with interests in art, as well as artists and art scholars, and those working in the fields of urban and rural planning, urban regeneration, art and ecology, curating, public art, and cultural management.
