Tracey Warr's essays tangle with Punk Art, Endurance Art, Performance Art, Site-Specific Art and Women's Art. She has worked with artists as both a curator and writer. Her texts have often been developed as an 'embedded' writer, writing with rather than about the artist and immersed in the artist's making process.

Warr's essays engage with a range of contemporary artists including Marina Abramovic, Ackroyd & Harvey, Brook & Black, Chris Burden, Marcus Coates, Bruce Gilchrist, Elpida Hadzi-Vasileva, London Fieldworks, Hayley Newman, Alan Smith, Emily Speed, Christian Thompson, James Turrell, Nomeda and Gediminas Urbonas and more.

This edition brings together diverse essays previously published in journals, exhibition catalogues, conference proceedings and online publications.
