In ‘Acts of Resistance’, Amber Massie-Blomfield writes about the artists who have treated the protest site as their canvas and contributed to movements that have transformed history – from the Paris Commune of 1871 to the four-year Siege of Sarajevo, from the musicians in Auschwitz to ACT UP’s 1989 invasion of the New York Stock Exchange, and from the Niger Delta to indigenous communities in Bolivia. Including stories and artists from across the globe, including Susan Sontag, Ken Saro-Wiwa, Claude Cahun and Theaster Gates – alongside collectives, communities, amateurs and anonymous creators who have used their art as an expression of resistance – this book asks what is the purpose of art in a world on fire?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
