This book draws on ethnographic research among a variety of activist groups and initiatives that use art and performance-based art forms as a vehicle for social change, to examine the tensions between aesthetics and politics that lie at the heart of art activism. Bringing together concepts and theories from aesthetics, performance studies and art theory with social movement theory, the author proposes a theoretical framework that explains what sets this kind of practice apart from other art forms and other forms of political practice.
