Institutions by Artists

4/5 ( ratings)

Artist-run initiatives in North America provided a space for the presentation and legitimization of experimental work and for the assertion of socially progressive and politically radical ideas and questions. In making such spaces available, artist-run initiatives have operated alternately as flash points for heated debates and controversies, as well as platforms for social understanding and remaining for their audiences. Institutions by Artists: Volume One presents a collection of texts addressing the performance and promise of contemporary global artist-run centers and initiatives within the historical contexts that saw their emergence. Texts address centers in Amman , Brisbane , Vancouver , Zurich and Tokyo , Barcelona , among others. The book is published as part of Fillip's ongoing Folio Series which presents anthologies of new and previously published questions on international contemporary art.
