Description
Making Another World Possible offers a broad look at socially engaged cultural practices that have become increasingly visible in recent years. This book explores an array of fields, including visual art, performance, theater, activism, architecture, urban planning, pedagogy, and ecology.
The book is divided into four parts, each offering a unique perspective on the field of socially engaged art and cultural practice. Part II presents a visually striking summary of key events from 1945 to the present, while Part III provides an overview of current issues facing practitioners and communities. The final part identifies ten global issues and documents 100 key artistic projects from around the world.
This archive is a valuable resource for anyone interested in socially engaged art and culture, offering insights into methodologies, contextualizing specific sites, and broadening our understanding of what constitutes an engaged culture. With commissioned essays from noted critics, practitioners, and theorists, Making Another World Possible provides both breadth and depth to the conversation on this important topic.
