Название: Vanguardia Socially engaged art and theory
Автор: Marc James Léger
Аннотация:
The chapters of this book cover a range of social, political and intellectual phenomena that have affected and informed cultural production since the early 2000s. In particular, the advent of social practice or socially engaged art encapsulates the sense that postmodern theory and culture wars were not adequate responses to the crises of global capitalism. As cultural research on the left, this book does not present the various reasons why, to cite Clement Greenberg’s famous claim in ‘Avant-Garde and Kitsch,’ socialism is the best means to keep modernist culture moving, but rather, in neoliberal times, the ways in which contemporary culture is able or not to sustain the vision of a world beyond capitalism. This book is dedicated to the comradely encouragement of those people who have helped me make a small contribution to this end.
