PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Erdem Çolak is an artist and a lecturer in the Department of Political Science and Public Administration at Middle East Technical University, Turkey.
Adopting a convincing interdisciplinary methodology, Erdem ?olak provides a meticulously researched evaluation of Manifesta. With great authority and insight, he navigates not only the fault-lines of an emergent ‘new Europe’ as place but also the place of art within that continuing process. * Nicolas Whybrow, Emeritus Professor of Urban Performance Studies, University of Warwick, UK * We’ve waited nearly twenty years for a newly dedicated exploration of Manifesta and how it reshaped the terrain of contemporary art in Europe. Çolak fills that gap with a book at once critical and caring of this landmark institution, and a timely exploration of biennial culture since the 1990s. * Anthony Gardner, Professor of Contemporary Art History, University of Oxford, UK * Pulling back the curtain on Manifesta, political scientist Erdem Çolak offers a clear-eyed, data-driven dive into the show’s “art–politics–commerce triangle” over time. The author makes a compelling argument for Manifesta as a carrier of neoliberal consensus – defining European-ness through scaled effects, as individual artworks, curatorial solidarities, and urban alterations leave their mark on the future. * Caroline A. Jones, Associate Dean, MIT School of Architecture and Planning, USA, and author of The Global Work of Art (2016) *
