Beskrivning

Addressing contemporary issues in environmental justice, this collection of art-law collaborations introduces a new global view of the international commons.Contemporary artists concerned with endangered ecosystems and the threat of climate catastrophe have become increasingly engaged in legal systems. Challenging established legal ideas, this book brings together authors and artists who offer new ideas and strategies to achieve greater environmental justice. Each essay invites policy considerations by detailing specific examples that challenge established judicial assumptions. Organized into three parts – The Limits of Law, Instruments of Law, and Interdisciplinarity and the Law – the book presents a brief for an international commons. Engaging a range of practical and theoretical issues in the area of ecology through the unique lens of art-law, this writing presents fresh thinking about the meaning of justice in the Anthropocene.This book will be of interest to researchers and upper-level graduate students and scholars in law, art, cultural studies, political theory and environmental studies.

Art Law and Environmental Justice: Transforming the Commons is an earnest dialogue among theorists and practitioners, artists, critics, and attorneys on the current state of the art and law interactions and their implications for the future, including environmental concerns, values, and rights. Authors take themselves and their practices seriously as they seek to explore, together, contemporary manifestations of artistic expression and tools available to protect future common spaces and cultural heritage. The anthology, carefully curated, offers a time capsule on issues of note in art making in the first quarter of the 21st century, while its editors and contributors strive for just future in our international creative common.Irina Tarsis, Founding and Managing Director, Center for Art Law (NYC/Zürich), Attorney and art historian‘Art Law and Environmental Justice’ forcefully addresses and resurrects a diminished Commons – the shared resources governed by communities. Their privatized capture in legalities dismisses interrelationships and community values in time and space. The many new social constructs presented are spearheaded by incisive ecoartists and lawyers and are on history’s edge.R. Eugene Turner, Emeritus Professor, Louisiana State UniversityArt Law and Environmental Justice: Transforming the Commons opens a vital space between art, law, ecology and public responsibility. Its strongest insight is that art does not merely represent environmental injustice; it makes hidden structures of power, ownership and vulnerability visible before they become legal questions, inviting new justice for the commons.Antonino La Vela, Independent artist, writer and contemporary art critic
