This volume explores the territories of resistance where art's potential becomes relevant again. It addresses a critical issue that has been debated for decades but rarely examined independently. The focus is on how art serves as an agent of resistance, either as a rhetorical stance or an effective critical strategy. In today's climate of revolt and insurrection, it questions whether the gesture of 'negation' retains its emancipatory potential. The interplay between artistic and political realms is complex, with moments of overlap and clear demarcation. The book seeks to clarify the critical forces and agonality within these interactions, contributing to a deeper understanding of resistance logics as articulated by Jacques Rancière, who distinguishes between the politics of art's becoming-life and resistant forms. It features a diverse array of voices and essays from academia and the arts, presenting theoretical approaches and case studies. By juxtaposing these perspectives, it captures the complexity and diversity of artistic practices within a global framework influenced by various political streams. Topics include sexual dissidence, ecology and the Anthropocene, digital geopolitics, and institutional critique. Contributors include Sara Alonso Gómez, Mieke Bal, Zach Blas, and others who illuminate how art engages with these urgent issues.
