Item description from seller

[ACTIVISM]. Po-Shin Chiang, Pei-Yi Lu, AGI Society, Jui-Wen Chen, et al. "ACT: Anarchic Counter-Culture of Trans-East Asia: Activist Art and the Rise of the Multitude, No. 47, 2011." ACT: Art Critique of Taiwan, 2011. English and Chinese languages. Softcover with black cardboard covers with silver lettering. 25 x 19 x 1.5 cm. 10 x 7.5 x 0.5 in. 13 oz. 159 pp. Text with full-color illustrations and photos. Stickers on back cover. Crease to right-hand corner of front cover. Appears to be an Adbusters-esque magazine out of Taiwan. Not all of the text is bi-lingual, English appears sporadically but often. Very Good. No ISBN. ISSN: 1561-1493. ""Art Viewpoint ACT" once discussed the politics and tactics of contemporary art action in the 43rd issue of "Curatorial Machine and Biopolitics", especially focusing on the collusion and transcendence of curatorial machine and neo-liberalism or global governance. Continuing this direction, the 47th issue of "Anarchy in East Asia: Artistic Activism and the Rise of the Masses" has been planned for nearly a year, and then expands the vision of this proposition, examining Japan, South Korea, Beijing, Hong Kong, and other anarchism and Art Action's practice network in Taiwan. Through the transnational genealogy of "East Asia", re-understand the composition of contemporary art and cultural subjects, and reverse the domestic reference system that regards the West as "international" for a long time, from direct action, aesthetics and politics, ethics and memory and other investigations, to explore the possibility of the subject of the movement, and to think about how to form a transnational critique and resistance path.".…

Store description

I sell uncommon art catalogs, academic monographs, and prints, as well as rare ephemera such as posters and zines. I ship from Brooklyn, New York. I am an alum of the Rare Book School and the Colorado Antiquarian Book Seminar, as well as Indiana University and the Ohio State University. I started in the trade at the Wexner Center for the Arts bookstore, and I have previously worked for the Columbus Metropolitan Library, the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago's Department of Prints and Drawings, and the Indiana University Art Museum's center for Prints, Drawings, and Photographs. More recently, I was the rare book cataloger at Donald Heald Rare Books, for whom I worked the ABAA's New York International Antiquarian Book Fair.…
