The work of seminal contemporary artist Chris Burden, insightfully
contextualized around major themes, illuminates a practice that is
as unique as it is influential. For four decades, Chris Burden's
work has redefined the boundaries of the sculptural field. Whether
subjecting himself to extremes of physical suffering or
reconfiguring forgotten urban objects and toy models to create
potent signifiers of a time and place, the brute force of Burden's
work in the physical realm reverberates through the psychic one. On
the occasion of the New Museum's focused survey of Burden's work,
this book provides new perspectives on his art. Organized around
themes like the Myth of the American West, the Institution, Gender
Roles, and Model Making, the book reexamines preoccupations that
span the artist's long career.

Essays, dialogues, and art projects that illuminate the changing
role of art as it responds to radical economic, political, and
global shifts. How should we understand the purpose of publicly
engaged art in the twenty-first century, when the very term "public
art" is largely insufficient to describe such practices? Concepts
such as "new genre public art," "social practice," or "socially
engaged art" may imply a synergy between the role of art and the
role of government in providing social services. Yet the arts and
social services differ crucially in terms of their methods and
metrics. Socially engaged artists need not be aligned (and may
often be opposed) to the public sector and to institutionalized
systems. In many countries, structures of democratic governance and
public responsibility are shifting, eroding, and being remade in
profound ways-driven by radical economic, political, and global
forces. According to what terms and through what means can art
engage with these changes? This volume gathers essays, dialogues,
and art projects-some previously published and some newly
commissioned-to illuminate the ways the arts shape and reshape a
rapidly changing social and governmental landscape. An artist
portfolio section presents original statements and projects by some
of the key figures grappling with these ideas.
