Description
The One and the Many: Contemporary Collaborative Art in a Global Context by Grant H. Kester explores the evolution of collaborative art practices worldwide over the past fifteen years. Kester examines the work of artists, groups, and organizations that have contributed to this shift, including Thomas Hirschhorn, Superflex, Francis Alÿs, Santiago Sierra, Park Fiction, Networking and Initiatives for Culture and the Arts, Ala Plastica, Huit Facettes, and Dialogue. He argues that these collaborative projects reflect a broader transition in contemporary art practice, where conventional notions of aesthetic autonomy are being redefined. The book presents a critical framework for understanding this new form of agency and identity mobilized by collaborative production, highlighting the ways in which art is becoming a process of reciprocal creative labor.
