""Alberro shows that 'global contemporary art' is a North Atlantic fiction, pervasive and insidious, that acts as a massive provincializing machine. Offering acute accounts of wide range of examples, Alberro traces how artists--especially art collectives--in many parts of the world are negotiating new modes of transcultural exchange at the margins, while at the same time enriching the independence of local cultures. This mix anticipates the worlds, and the art, to come.""--Terry Smith, author of ""Art to Come: Histories of Contemporary Art""
