The Lure of the Social (eBook, ePUB)

Encounters with Contemporary Artists

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Artists increasingly find themselves working in participatory settings where skills in social engagement are as essential as their creative skills. The Lure of the Social is a creative practice ethnography as well as intimate and personal exploration that navigates Gretchen Coombs's research from one end of the spectrum to the other: she closely works with socially engaged artists as part of her ethnographic research at the one end, and tries to find a critical distance to write about their art projects and the institutional structures that support their work, at the other.

The Lure of the Social is a beautifully written exploration of key individuals, institutions and gatherings in socially engaged art.
