What about activism in curatorial practice? In this book, more than twenty leading curators and thinkers about contemporary art present powerful case studies, historical analyses, and theoretical perspectives that address the dynamics of activism, protest, and advocacy. What unfolds in these pages is a vast range of ideas-a tool kit for cultural producers everywhere to engage audiences and face the fierce political challenges of today and tomorrow.
