Is culture a luxury? In this era of austerity, the value of the
arts has been a topic of heated debate in Greece, where the
country's economic troubles have led to drastic cuts in public
funding and much contention over the significance of cultural
institutions and government-funded arts initiatives. At issue in
these debates are larger questions regarding the very notions of
publicness, hierarchies of value, and functions of the state that
structure collective life. Beginning with the Thessaloniki
International Film Festival, The Public Life of Cinema tracks this
turbulence as it unfolded in the Greek film world in the early
years of the crisis. Investigating the different forms of
citizenship and collectivity being negotiated in cinema's social
spaces, this book considers how the arts and cultural production
may illuminate the changing conditions of, and possibilities for,
public and collective life in the neoliberal era.
