Résumé:
Grant Kester discusses a disparate network of artists and collectives — including The Art of Change, Helen and Newton Harrison, Littoral, Suzanne Lacy, Stephen Willats, and WochenKlausur — united by a desire to create new forms of understanding through creative dialogue that crosses boundaries of race, religion, and culture. Kester traces the origins of these works in the conceptual art and feminist performance art of the 1960s and 1970s and draws from the writings of Mikhail Bakhtin, Jürgen Habermas, and others as he explores the ways in which these artists corroborate and challenge many of the key principles of avant-garde art and art theory.

Résumé:
Ahali is the Turkish word for a community based on being at a particular location at a particular moment in time. It is a community defined through contingency, as opposed to cemaat , which translates as community in the traditional sense -- bound by a commonality of belief, kinship, origin or a more durational locality.

Résumé:
Ahali is the Turkish word for a community based on being at a particular location at a particular moment in time. It is a community defined through contingency, as opposed to cemaat , which translates as community in the traditional sense -- bound by a commonality of belief, kinship, origin or a more durational locality. In contrast, Ahali stands for the community that exists without a defined or expressed commonality other than being together. This anthology brings together contributions to the journal of the same name, which was first launched in 2007. The journal has been and still is a sporadic art publication and provides a growing collection of works, statements and voices from artistic and spatial practices.

Résumé:
Anywhere or Not At All is a major philosophical intervention in art theory that challenges the terms of established positions through a new approach at once philosophical, historical, social and art-critical. Setting out the claim that ‘contemporary art is postconceptual art’, the book elaborates a series of conceptual constructions and interpretations of works by Navjot Altaf, the Atlas Group, Amar Kanwar, Sol LeWitt, Gordon Matta-Clark, Gerhard Richter and Robert Smithson, among others. It concludes with new accounts of the institutional and existential complexities of ‘art space’ and ‘art time’.
