Jessica Lack presents fifty pioneering modern and contemporary art movements born out of political engagement, decolonization, marginalization, or conflict. These movements aimed to revitalize society by challenging the status quo. Although less well-known than Pop Art, Dada, or Futurism, these artist associations—such as the Iranian artists Saqqakhaneh, the Mexican Stridentistas, the Jikken Kōbō group in Japan, or AfriCobra in the United States—empowered their members. The book brings unknown documentation to life by exploring each art movement's unique historical context, significant cultural events and interconnections, and the key players in the movements' evolution.
