Since the turn of the millennium, protests, meetings, schoolrooms,
reading groups and many other social forms have been proposed as
artworks or, more ambiguously, as interventions that are somewhere
between art and politics. This book surveys the resurgence of
politicized art, tracing key currents of theory and practice, and
mapping them against the dominant experience of the last decade:
crisis. Drawing upon leading artists and theorists within this
field - including Hito Steyerl, Marina Vishmidt, Art &
Language, Gregory Sholette, John Roberts and Dave Beech - this book
argues for a new interpretation of the relationship between
socially-engaged art and neoliberalism. Kim Charnley explores the
possibility that neoliberalism has destabilized the art system so
that it is no longer able to absorb and neutralize dissent. As a
result, the relationship between aesthetics and politics is
experienced with fresh urgency and militancy.
