Art worlding: planning relations

Uittreksel

"Tracing the associations between artists, planners and engineers with and within the materials of our environment, this book introduces the more than human relational theory of 'art worlding' as a way of coming to know our relational continuity. Through a series of 'sculptural' ethnographies of the making and doing of art in urban and rural contexts, the author re-orientates the art-planning relationship in recognition of art practice as a way of knowing more than human relations, thus promoting the organic continuity between humans and environment. Methodologically innovative, the book traces the inter-relation of art as part of planning practice and integrates artistic practice as a mode of inquiry within planning research. It introduces a new paradigm for public art scholarship and practice that re-connects art and planning. Art Worlding: Planning Relations will appeal to sociologists and social anthropologists with interests in art practice, as well as those working in the fields of urban and rural planning, urban regeneration and cultural management"--
