Sustainable Tools for Precarious Times: Performance Actions in the Americas by Natalie Alvarez, Claudette Lauzon, Keren ZaiontzEnglish | PDF | 2019 | 344 Pages | ISBN : 3030115569 | 12.2 MB
This book charts the changing frontiers of activism in the Americas. Travelling Canada, the US, the US-Mexico border, Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, Colombia, and Indigenous territories on Turtle Island, it invites readers to identify networks, clusters, and continuities of art-activist tactics designed to exceed the event horizon of the performance protest. Essays feature Indigenous artists engaging in land-based activism and decolonial cyberactivism, grass-roots movements imagining possible futures through cross-sector alliance building, art-activists forwarding tactics of reinvention, and student groups in the throes of theatrical assembly.
