Books by Nestor Garcia Canclini

Art is expanding into urban development and the design and tourism industries. Art practices based on objects are displaced by practices based on contexts. Aesthetic distinctions dissolve as artworks are inserted into the media, urban spaces, digital networks, and social forums. This book deals with this topic.

A leading figure in cultural studies worldwide, Nestor Garcia Canclini is a Latin American thinker who has consistently sought to understand the impact of globalization. In this book, newly available in English, he considers how globalization is imagined by artists, academics, migrants, and entrepreneurs, all of whom traverse boundaries and engage in multicultural interactions.
