Description
"During 2004-2010 C3West commissioned four Australian and international artists -- Craig Walsh, Sylvie Blocher, Ash Keating, and Jeanne van Heeswijk -- to produce art in partnership with a range of business partners in Western Sydney, including a rugby league club and two environmental and waste management companies. The resulting artworks -- embracing highly inventive processes of community participation and creative artistic skill -- are intricate showcases of what this book calls "the art of engagement". The Art of Engagement reveals the dynamics of such unique arts-business-community collaborations, while exploring their aesthetic, social and political dimensions. This collection of essays and documentation puts the C3West experiment in an international context, and invites us to rethink what contemporary art can mean in Australia while promising a rich, intelligent and delightful book."--Publisher's website.
