Biography
Eva Marxen is Assistant Professor of Art Therapy at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, US.
"This book is an important resource for educators and therapists who want to participate in the civic and political responsibility of museums, mediators and curators who accept the political challenge of moving and being nomadic with respect to exhibition spaces and want to relationally affect their communities more insistently, and for art historians and critical theorists who want to think about the different ways in which a set of practices of a specific history has been deployed from anti-psychiatry, critical curatorship, cultural politics, and the activation of contemporary art."
