Why are we 'artists'?: 100 world art manifestos

Given the ever-growing prominence of Latin American, Far and Middle Eastern and African art on the global stage, this book is especially relevant to today's contemporary art scene.

This collection of 100 vital, and yet perhaps lesser-known manifestos, voices the fascinating ideologies of more easily overlooked artistic movements of the last century across the world.

Lack brings something fresh and thought-provoking to the conversation on why art, in all its guises, is a social and political necessity.
