Politics as Public Art The Aesthetics of Political Organizing and Social Movements - Routledge Advances in Theatre & Performance Studies

$39.79

Publisher: Taylor and Francis

Author: Martin Zebracki

Politics as Public Art presents a keystone collection that pursues new frameworks for a critical understanding of the relationship between public art and protest movements through the utilization of socially engaged and choreopolitical approaches. This anthology draws from a unique combination of interdisciplinary scholarship and activism where it integrates geographically rich perspectives from political and grassroots community contexts spanning the US, Europe, Australia, and Southeastern Africa. The volume questions, and re-imagines, not only how public art practice can be integral to politics, including forms of surveillance and control of bodily movement. It also probes into how political participation itself can be construed as a form of public artmaking for radical social change and just worlds. This collection advocates for scholar-activist inquiry into how socially engaged public art practices can choreograph greater intersectional justice and pave the way for thinking through—and working towards—more inclusive futures. This book provides a wide appeal to audiences across humanities and social science scholarship, arts practice, and activism seeking conceptual and empirically informed tools for moving from public art and choreopolitical theory into modes of praxis: critical reflection and action.
