Description

Making Room is an anthology of texts on art, media and aesthetic practice within the context of squatting, occupation and urban-space activism. It includes pieces by activist researchers working between the academy and the movements they write about, in addition to journalistic first-person narratives by squatters, original photography and interviews with artists, theorists and activists considering struggles over urban space and creative production within the city. Topics come with brief histories of squatting in the United Kingdom, Germany and the Netherlands; the creation of Temporary Autonomous Zones; Puerto Rican occupations in New York; the influence of the Situationists on French squatting; and activism and camping at Documentas 10, 11 and 13. Right through, cultural production appears in more than a few forms starting from conventional art practices to the organizing of communities and networks, to the production of media and putting in of data systems.
