| description | More and more North-American artists create collective works in collaboration with members of stigmatized and marginalized communities or collectivities. These artistic practices, called « community arts », pursue a double objective: (1) to explore through creation the individual and collective suffering brought about by social relations of domination (in order to favour a process of subjectivization that may become political), and (2) to contest these relations of domination through critical works. This type of resistance violates the modern principle linking public space with political action because it contests the strict separation between private and public, it foregrounds particular experiences, and it proposes alternative forms of political deliberation. It is with this in mind that the author characterizes community arts, reflects on collective artistic creation as a tool of subjectivization, and discusses some of the political stakes raised by these original artistico-social practices. |
