Allows us to see the historical moment we live in through the lens of past struggles. It is a much-needed inquiry into the tremendous possibilities of art then and now to engender powerful social transformation. -- Eva Díaz, Professor of the History of Art and Design, Pratt Institute. A wonderfully smart, readable and informative study of a topic that matters to almost everyone interested in art, which is more than enough to recommend it. But gems like the luminous chapter on Agnes Denes and the eye-opening revisionary discussion of her relation to Smithson make it something even better-essential reading. -- Walter Benn Michaels, author of <i>The Shape of the Signifier</i> In a deft and engaging account of artist-led activism in the us since the 1960s, Lauren O'Neill-Butler makes the case that artists bring something unique to struggles for social justice, alongside their passion and righteous anger: creativity. A necessary book as we find new ways to organize and resist. -- Julia Bryan-Wilson, professor of LGBTQ+ art history, Columbia university
