- This book, co-edited by Lloyd and Dimitrakaki, offers a new account of art production in the wake of globalisation in terms of economic relations. Consisting of 11 chapters, the book built on the editor’s major curatorial project, ECONOMY (Edinburgh and Glasgow, 2013). Dimitrakaki and Lloyd co-wrote the Introduction (10,000 words). This text presents an integrated, theoretically rigorous approach to the turn, within contemporary art practice and theory, to the economy in the wake of globalisation since the 1990s. It sets out a broad range of case studies and theoretical approaches, and introduces the essays in the volume within a coherent theoretical framework.
Lloyd’s particular contribution entailed examination of how theories of dispossession and austerity economics, analysis of the ways artworks from diverse contexts can converge in their assessment of the economy and why art must be placed at the forefront of debates on the economy.
