Prisons are an invisible, but dominant, part of American society: the United States incarcerates more people than any other nation in the world. In Michigan, the number of prisoners rose from 3,000 in 1970 to more than 50,000 by 2008, a shift that Buzz Alexander witnessed firsthand when he came to teach at the University of Michigan. Is William Martinez Not Our Brother? describes the University of Michigan's Prison Creative Arts Project (PCAP), a pioneering program founded in 1990 that provides university courses, a nonprofit organization, and a national network for incarcerated youth and adults in Michigan juvenile facilities and prisons. By giving incarcerated individuals an opportunity to participate in the arts, PCAP enables them to withstand and often overcome the conditions and culture of prison, the policies of an incarcerating state, and the consequences of mass incarceration.

Approaching the prison as a creative environment and imprisoned officials as creative subjects in Ming China (1368-1644), Ying Zhang introduces important themes at the intersection of premodern Chinese religion, poetry, and visual and material culture. The Ming is known for its extraordinary cultural and economic accomplishments in the increasingly globalized early modern world. For scholars of Chinese religion and art, this era crystallizes the essential and enduring characteristics in these two spheres. Drawing on scholarship on Chinese philosophy, religion, aesthetics, poetry, music, and visual and material culture, Zhang illustrates how the prisoners understood their environment as creative and engaged it creatively. She then offers a literature survey on the characteristics of premodern Chinese religion and art that helps situate the questions of “creative environment” and “creative subject” within multiple fields of scholarship.

Quand je suis arrivé, je me suis présenté en précisant que j'étais affecté là. Le premier truc que le surveillant à l'entrée m'a dit, sans même me dire bonjour, c'est : " bienvenue en enfer ".

Au début des années 1990, le compositeur Nicolas Frize entreprend de construire une structure inédite de création musicale, de formation et de travail au sein de la Maison centrale de Saint-Maur. Trente ans plus tard, le Studio du temps poursuit ses activités. Nicolas Frize retrace ici les étapes de cette expérience à la fois singulière et exemplaire, toujours en butte à une idéologie carcérale dont il s’emploie inlassablement à desserrer l’étau. C'est une expérience au sens fort que relate cet ouvrage, une expérience en milieu carcéral orchestrée depuis plus de trente ans par le compositeur Nicolas Frize au sein de la maison centrale de Saint-Maur. Le Studio du temps est un agencement humain et technique sans équivalent. Il propose à ses participants d'articuler de façon inédite les problématiques du travail, de la création artistique et de ce que certains appellent "réinsertion".A ce terme, Nicolas Frize oppose résolument le verbe "desserrer" : desserrer l'étau de l'idéologie carcérale ; desserrer la vision étroite des mesures socio-éducatives que favorise volontiers l'institution ; desserrer les représentations convenues d'une organisation aliénée du travail, entre les murs et au-delà.
