Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
This book urges for an understanding of contemporary art as being core to creative responses which intervene in the lived experience of forced displacement.
This book seeks to explore art practice which moves beyond mere representation toward practical intervention across five key areas: language, heritage and design, pedagogy and education, law and access to justice and the archive. Focusing on art produced across three sites, each emblematic of protracted forms of displacement (Greece, Palestine and Australia), it makes clear the ways in which art operates as a vital yet underacknowledged instrument of cultural resilience.
This book is ideal for researchers, scholars and practitioners interested in contemporary art and politics, contemporary art methods and practice, and migration.
"An urgent profiling of art as agency and activism, this multi-sited analysis works in close attunement with resilience and survival taking shape against colonial displacement, forced migration and exile. Contemporary Art and Forced Displacement curates new works as well as networks of transnational advocacy, solidarities and decolonial interventions to rethink the crisis contemporary today."
-- Jennifer L Biddle, Director emLAB (the Ethnographic Media Lab) UNSW Art, Design and Architecture.
