Collaborative art praxis is gaining prominence in the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia (MENASA) region. This is a discursive method that is experimental, with results that often expand the notions of what art is­-and how it can be produced. After an introduction to global approaches to such a practice, Ali examines the foundation of contemporary art in the MENASA that is linked to a longer history of colonialism. The book analyzes artist-led initiatives and community-based organizations through themes including relational aesthetics, war and violence, blight in marginalized places around the world, in addition to questions associated with art and its value in the fields of global contemporaryart and society. 606 $aArts 606 $aArts 615 0$aArts. 615 14$aArts. 676 $a700.108 676 $a709.53 700 $aAli$b Atteqa$01226351 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483278103321 996 $aCollaborative praxis and contemporary art experiments in the MENASA region$92847506 997 $aUNINA
