Res Publica: Art as a Public Affair - Paperback

by Claus Carstensen (Editor), Per Aage Brandt (Text by (Art/Photo Books)), Boris Groys (Text by (Art/Photo Books))

On the praxis of public art and its psychological mechanisms, political agendas and existential issues

What does "art as a public affair" mean? And what is the relationship between art and the public? These are the questions that the exhibition and its corresponding publication explore, inspired by Boris Groys' essay "Art in the Age of Democracy."
