Trojan Horse Exit Strategies

Through historical analysis, philosophical inquiry, and contemporary artistic case studies, this book examines models and consequences of situations in which artists, curators, and cultural practitioners work from within the very structures they seek to challenge or transform.

Drawing on the metaphor of the Trojan horse, the authors explore the effectiveness of infiltrating and transforming established institutional practices, while examining the psychological, political, and tactical mechanisms behind such interventions.
