"Through historical analysis, philosophical inquiry, and contemporary artistic case studies, this book examines what happens when artists, curators and cultural workers operate from within the very structures they seek to subvert. Taking the legend less as a heroic myth than as a working condition, 'Trrojan Horse Exit Strategies' is written from inside the apparatus, tracing practices that attempt to penetrate and rewire entrenched institutional habits while negotiating complexity, care work, and exhaustion. A quietly recurring digestive lexicon--of ingestion, processing and exit--shifts attention form the façade of institutions to their less visible operations. Rather than offering a script for "how to change institutions', the book explores the psychological, political, and tactical trajectories of exits that are not grand gestures but slow reorientations. Through essays, interviews, conversations, and playful visual contributions, it assembles a vocabulary and a set of reflections for those who have navigated this delicate and often risky path, plotting how to remain, how to step aside, and how to do both at once without losing the sharpness of one's politics or the sense of humour needed to survive in the belly of the horse."-- Back cover.
