"Art’s way ut’s discussion of art, politics and learning aims to delineate what an exit pedagogy would look. Baldacchino examines, inter alia, the problem of empathy in relation to art as an event (or series of events), drawing upon a wide and rich range of sources to inform what in effect is his manifesto. With a profound understanding of its philosophical basis, Baldacchino unfolds his argument in an internally consistent and elegantly structured way. Art’s way out has coherent structure, and a complex, interrelation between form and content, reflecting an artist’s concern for getting things right."

"Video Art Theory: A Comparative Approach demonstrates how video art functions on the basis of a comparative media approach, providing a crucial understanding of video as a medium in contemporary art and of the visual mediations we encounter in daily life.Having a highly elusive character from the outset, video art has also evolved strongly as an art form in the five decades of its existence. This transformation notably gave rise to exciting changes in its relationships to other media. These concerns serve as the starting point for this study. Throughout the four chapters of the book, the author demonstrates why it is impossible to capture video art in a single, all-inclusive definition. Rather than searching for medium-specificity or a general theory, this study proves that it is more useful to develop a theoretical interdisciplinary framework for research into video art. Video artworks are compared with television and performance art (with regard to immediacy); installation art (dealing with space); photography and painting (related to representation); and cinema (with importance of narrative). This methodology not only yields new perspectives, but crucially provides students with a much-needed context for understanding the evolution and paramount importance of video as a medium."

"Sebagai bagian dari masyarakat kota di Jakarta, warga yang tinggal di tepian Sungai Ciliwung seringkali masih menanggung stigma sebagai penyebab berbagai masalah sosial dan lingkungan. Untuk melawan narasi tersebut, Inisiatif Ciliwung Rhapsody menggagas kegiatan riverday Sketchwalk 2022 di tiga lokasi tepi sungai Ciliwung, salah satunya di Kampung Tongkol, Jakarta Utara. Kegiatan ini menggunakan seni urban sketching, yaitu seni menggambar di lokasi sebagai medium bagi para peserta yang berasal dari luar Kampung Tongkol untuk merepresentasikan Sungai Ciliwung melalui karya sketsa. Dengan menggunakan metode etnografi berupa pengamatan lapangan dan wawancara, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji kegiatan tersebut sebagai praktik engaged art, yaitu bentuk aktivisme sosial berbasis seni yang melibatkan berbagai pihak sebagai kolaborator. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terjadi unexpected drawback yang menyebabkan kurangnya keterlibatan warga dan minimnya ruang berekspresi bagi warga dalam pembetukan ulang representasi Sungai Ciliwung. Meskipun demikian, ditemukan satu kasus yang menunjukkan bahwa praktik engaged art berbasis seni urban sketching dapat memberi kesempatan bagi warga untuk berekspresi apabila dilakukan dengan tepat. Penelitian ini menyoroti kompleksitas praktik engaged art dengan menekankan pentingnya pendekatan yang inklusif dan partisipatif untuk menghindari unexpected drawbacks serta mewujudkan keterlibatan masyarakat dalam membentuk ulang representasi lingkungan kampung kota.

As a part of the urban community in Jakarta, the people who live along the Ciliwung riverbanks still bear stigma as the source of social and environmental problems. To counter this narrative, Ciliwung Rhapsody Initiatives initiated Riverday Sketchwalk 2022 in three different riverbank locations, one of which was Kampung Tongkol, North Jakarta. This event employed urban sketching, a sketch-on-location art method, as a medium for the participants, who were not the residents of Kampung Tongkol, to represent the Ciliwung River through their sketches. Using field observation and interview as an ethnographic method, this research aims to examine Riverday Sketchwalk 2022 as engaged art, an art-based form of activism involving multiple collaborators. Research findings indicate the occurrence of unexpected drawbacks, which led to a lack of community engagement and insufficient space of expression for Kampung Tongkol residents in reshaping the representation of Ciliwung River as their home. However, one specific case shows that engaged art practice using urban sketching as a medium can allow the local community to express themselves when appropriately conducted. This research sheds light on the complexities of engaged art practices. It emphasizes the importance of inclusive and participatory approaches in avoiding unexpected drawbacks to foster meaningful community involvement in reshaping the representation of rural-urban environments."
