Doing Politics with Citizen Art:

Daphne Plessner
Reading and discussion by Educator, Academic and Social Practice Artist, Daphne Plessner on her new book Doing Politics with Citizen Art.
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. Plessner examines how citizen art practices perform new kinds of politics, as distinct from normative (status, participatory and cosmopolitan) models.
