This is a wonderfully original book that will be a must-read for anyone interested in the under-explored relationship between art and citizenship. By interrogating citizenship from the perspective of activist and social art practices, Plessner entirely reframes our understandings of both citizenship and art, bringing to light the incipient nature of both, and pushing artists and scholars to consider how new models of citizenship can move beyond statist and cosmopolitan imaginaries. Placing the artist at the interstices between citizenship and activism, Plessner generates and conveys a necessary sense of urgency about the relationship between art and citizenship. She shows us not only how 'citizen art' interventions can interrupt hegemonies of settler-colonial logics of entitlement but also how they can create new bonds between people, establish new political relations and change assumptions about who is seen and heard as a political actor. If you want to understand how art can generate new dialogues that promote spaces for social transformation, then you need to read this book!, Daphne Plessner helps us frame a spectrum of contemporary artistic practices, including her own, which shape civil space and 'do politics' in a new light. This is an engaged and passionate proposition for new models of citizenship that defy both the Westphalian models of the nation state and cosmopolitan imaginaries., "Daphne Plessner helps us frame a spectrum of contemporary artistic practices, including her own, which shape civil space and 'do politics' in a new light.

Synopsis
This book examines how citizen art practices perform new kinds of politics, as distinct from normative (status, participatory and cosmopolitan) models. It contends that at a time in which the conditions of citizenship have been radically altered (e.g., by the increased securitization and individuation of bodies and so forth), there is an urgent drive for citizen art to be enacted as a tool for assessing the "hollowed out" conditions of citizenship. Citizen art, it shows, stands apart from other forms of art by performing acts of citizenship that reveal and transgress the limitations of state-centred citizenship regimes, whilst simultaneously enacting genuinely alternative modes of (non-statist) citizenship. This book offers a new formulation of citizen art--one that is interrogated on both critical and material levels, and as such, remodels the foundations on which citizenship is conceived, performed and instituted., This book distinguishes 'citizen art' from within the field of social and activist art practices and examines how it performs new modes of citizenship., This book examines how 'citizen art' practices perform new kinds of politics, as distinct from normative (status, participatory and cosmopolitan) models. It contends that at a time in which the conditions of citizenship have been radically altered (e.g., by the increased securitization and individuation of bodies etc.), there is an urgent drive for 'citizen art' to be enacted as a tool for assessing the 'hollowed out' conditions of citizenship. 'Citizen art', it shows, stands apart from other forms of Art by performing 'acts of citizenship' that reveal and transgress the limitations of state-centred citizenship regimes, whilst simultaneously enacting genuinely alternative modes of (non-statist) citizenship. This book explains how 'citizen art' can make citizenship manifest in ways that do not reify or valorize the nation-state, status rights, or cosmopolitan imaginaries. It shows instead that the outcomes of 'citizen art', such as the institutions of solidarity, assembly and interventions, reconfigure the 'tools' of politics in the act of 'doing politics' that, in turn, perform new and nascent modes of (non-statist) citizenship. This book offers a new formulation of 'citizen art' - one that is interrogated on both critical and material levels, and as such, that remodels the foundations on which citizenship is conceived, performed and instituted.

    Book was packaged nicely and it came exactly as it was shown in the pictures. It was shipped quickly too! I appreciate the offer the seller sent to me and I was happy to accept it. I will note I appreciate especially the 'handle with car' sticker and I wish many sellers like this one did something like this so the books don't come all busted in the mail. As a fan of Library of America books regarding the Founding Fathers and particularly of John Adams, this was a great find. Great seller!

    The book was packaged well. The shipping was slightly lagging. I'm unsure if the website or seller's fault. The tracking information never updated, I was not sure when to expect the book. Also, I ordered 7/2, arrived 7/9. With a holiday and weekend it wasn't that bad. Book is as described. Thank you!
