An anthology of texts on the problematic notion of "
alterrnative", based on
curatorial and artistic practices. One of the first surveys focusing on independant strategies for spaces, curators, and artists in the ‘90s, as well as deconstructing the ideological subtexts of both the « alternative » and independance.
Published on the occasion of the eponymous AICA international Symposium, organized by Lionel Bovier & Christophe Cherix, Zurich, december 1997.
