Contemporary Art and Forced Displacement: Methods of Intervention and Cultural Resilience

By (author) Chrisoula Lionis





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy


| book description |

This book urges for an understanding of contemporary art as being core to creative responses which intervene in the lived experience of forced displacement. Contemporary Art and Forced Displacement explores art practice which moves beyond mere representation toward practical intervention across five key areas: language, heritage and design, pedagogy and education, law and access to justice and the archive. Focusing on art produced across three sites, each emblematic of protracted forms of displacement (Greece, Palestine and Australia), it makes clear the ways in which art operates as a vital yet underacknowledged instrument of cultural resilience. This book is ideal for researchers, scholars and practitioners interested in contemporary art and politics, contemporary art methods and practice, and migration.
