Walking with the enemy: The art of subversive mimicry in the post-truth era (Rethinking Art's Histories) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book is about artists and activists who have embraced mimicry as a subversive tactic. Bringing together the contributions of seventeen writers, it addresses the ways in which artists have responded to power and ideology by imitating its outward forms. These contributors address in particular the current age of fantasy and political deception, and they consider the work of artists who have reacted by using dissimulation and make-believe themselves. Chapters include discussions of mimicry in reference to a number developments and debates: the post-truth era, the neoliberal consensus, the politics of race and gender, online subcultures, and the rise of the new right. An electronic version of the introductory chapter is available under a creative commons licence.
