Art As Policies for Care. Socially Engaged Art (2010—ongoing)

Visible: Art As Policies for Care – Socially Engaged Art (2010—ongoing) is a seminal publication that explores the transformative potential of socially engaged art practices. This concept book is the culmination of over a decade of curatorial research by Martina Angelotti, Matteo Lucchetti, and Judith Wielander, focusing on the relationship between art and the public sphere. It presents a new scene of artistic practices that interpret the dematerialization of art into transformative cultural and care policies, addressing the climatic, social, and political urgencies of our times.

Project realized with the support of the Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity of the Ministry of Culture as part of the Italian Council program (12th edition, 2023).
