From Francis Alys and Ursula Biemann to Vivan Sundaram, Allora
& Calzadilla, and the Center for Urban Pedagogy, some of the
most compelling artists today are engaging with the politics of
land use, including the growth of the global economy, climate
change, sustainability, Occupy movements, and the privatization of
public space. Their work pivots around a set of evolving questions:
In what ways is land, formed over the course of geological time,
also contemporary and formed by the conditions of the present? How
might art contribute to the expansion of spatial and environmental
justice? Editors Emily Eliza Scott and Kirsten Swenson bring
together a range of international voices and artworks to illuminate
this critical mass of practices. One of the first comprehensive
treatments of land use in contemporary art, Critical Landscapes
skillfully surveys the stakes and concerns of recent land-based
practices, outlining the art historical contexts, methodological
strategies, and geopolitical phenomena. This cross-disciplinary
collection is destined to be an essential reference not only within
the fields of art and art history, but also across those of
cultural geography, architecture and urban planning, environmental
history, and landscape studies.
