How artists have changed America through direct action and protest

THE WAR OF ART IS A HISTORY OF ARTIST-LED ACTIVISM AND ITS ASSOCIATED GLOBAL POLITICAL AND AESTHETIC DEBATES FROM THE 1960S TO THE PRESENT. STUDIES OF KEY INDIVIDUALS AND ARTIST GROUPS TELL THE STORY OF THEIR CAMPAIGNS FOR SOLIDARITY, HOUSING, AND LGBTQ+ AND HIV/AIDS AWARE­NESS. BASED ON IN-DEPTH ORAL HISTORIES AND ILLUSTRATED THROUGHOUT, THE WAR OF ART DEMONSTRATES THAT ART HISTORY IS ALSO POLITICAL HISTORY.

Lauren O'Neill-Butler is a writer and editor. Her first book, Let's Have a Talk: Conversations with Women on Art and Culture, (Karma, 2021) brings together nearly ninety interviews. A former Senior Editor of Artforum, she has also contributed to Aperture, Art Journal, and The New York Times. In 2020, she received an Andy Warhol Foundation Arts Writers grant.
