Over the past 20 years, a new generation of artists has been working together in small groups and large collectives to explore new avenues of art, design, performance, and commerce. In “Come Together: The Rise of Cooperative Art and Design,” Francesco Spampinato assembles an international roster of today’s most exciting and influential individuals that cover a broad spectrum of creative disciplines. What emerges is a shared desire to turn viewers into producers and use commercial mass media strategies to challenge prevailing social, political, and cultural power structures.
