Description

Pablo Helguera's Education for Socially Engaged Art is a critical compass for navigating the complexities of socially engaged practices. This timely reference book draws on histories of performance, pedagogy, sociology, ethnography, linguistics, community and public practices to provide a framework for thinking about socially engaged art.

Helguera's approach locates methodologies between disciplines, exposing the temporalities necessary to make these situations possible and resonant. This book is a tool that will allow us to consider the difficulties of making socially engaged art and move closer to finding a language through which we can represent and discuss its impact.

A highly readable guide for anyone interested in teaching or learning about socially engaged art, Education for Socially Engaged Art promises to offer a much-needed critical framework for those adrift in the expanded social field.
