Because, as the foremost scholar and participant observer of the vibrant and much debated movement of art collectives and collaborations, Papastergiadis takes the reader into an arena of aesthetic imaginaries practised, where the crucial experiments in cosmopolitanism as a redeemed form of cultural translation are happening.' George Marcus, University of California, Irvine 'This compelling book opens up once again the whole question of the social imagination. This is the context in which Papastergiadis begins to effect a paradigm shift in the understanding of art and creative industries in our increasingly cosmopolitan global culture.' Scott Lash, Goldsmith College, University of London Author InformationNikos Papastergiadis is professor of cultural studies and media at University of Melbourne Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
