The Routledge Companion to Art and Politics offers a thorough
examination of the complex relationship between art and politics,
and the many forms and approaches the engagement between them can
take. The contributors - a diverse assembly of artists, activists,
scholars from around the world - discuss and demonstrate ways of
making art and politics legible and salient in the world. As such
the 32 chapters in this volume reflect on performing and visual
arts; music, film and new media; as well as covering social
practice, community-based work, conceptual, interventionist and
movement affiliated forms. The Companion is divided into four
distinct parts: Conceptual Cartographies Institutional
Materialities Modalities of Practice Making Publics Randy Martin
has assembled a collection that ensures that readers will come away
with a wider view of what can count as art and politics; where they
might find it; and how it moves in the world. The diversity of
perspectives is at once challenging and fortifying to those who
might dismiss political art on the one hand as not making
sufficient difference and on the other to those embracing it but
seeking a means to elaborate the significance that it can make in
the world. The Routledge Companion to Art and Politics brings
together a range of issues and approaches and encourages critical
and creative thinking about how art is produced, perceived, and
received.
