Description: "Thirteen projects by WochenKlausur, a group of art activists, show that art can very well play a concrete role in the socio-political field. Not a single work of art is, however, to be seen, and the exhibition space functions as the central office. Here, in just a few weeks of concentrated effort, exactly defined aims are followed, leading to more social harmony.".

"The book illustrates the operating methods and strategies behind such interventional art; an art that points to new ways of acting not dominated by market-orientated mechanisms."--BOOK JACKET.
