Synopsis
"Art as Social Action . . . is an essential guide to deepening social art practices and teaching them to students." —Laura Raicovich, president and executive director, Queens Museum
Art as Social Action is both a general introduction to and an illustrated, practical textbook for the field of social practice, an art medium that has been gaining popularity in the public sphere.

- Mary Jane Jacob
- Maureen Connor
- Brian Rosa
- Pablo Helguera
- Jen de los Reyes
- Jeanne van Heeswick
- Jaishri Abichandani
- Loraine Leeson
- Ala Plastica
- Daniel Tucker
- Fiona Whelan

Lesson plans also reflect the ongoing pedagogical and art action work of Social Practice Queens (SPQ), a unique partnership between Queens College CUNY and the Queens Museum.
