This book reflects on the motivations of creative practitioners who
have moved out of cities from the mid-1960s onwards to establish
creative homesteads. The book focuses on desert exile painter Agnes
Martin, radical filmmaker and gardener Derek Jarman, and
iconoclastic conceptual artist Chris Burden, detailing their
connections to the cities they had left behind (New York, London,
Los Angeles). Sarah Lowndes also examines how the rise of digital
technologies has made it more possible for artists to live and work
outside the major art centers, especially given the rising cost of
living in London, Berlin, and New York, focusing on three
peripheral creative centers: the seaside town of Hastings, England,
the midsized metro of Leipzig, Germany, and post-industrial
Detroit, USA.
