Description
Toward the Not-Yet Art as Public Practice explores alternative ways of conceiving the present and future through artistic practices aimed at social change. This collection combines handbook, dictionary, and anthology to investigate praxis that experiments with aesthetics and politics in ways beyond Western modernity's conventions. Contributors, including notable artists, scholars, activists, and writers, consider ways of participating in civic life, such as "dreamscaping" and "radical listening", creating safer spaces for humans and nonhumans, and shifting laws and policies. The book is part of BAK's series of BASICS readers, featuring a SUPERBASICS variation with more visual content. Copublished with BAK, basis voor actuele kunst, Toward the Not-Yet offers insights into a praxis committed to experimenting with aesthetics and politics in ways that go beyond conventional boundaries.
