In opposition to the modes of control and the regulation of bodies profusely developed along the border line, Lozano-Hemmer proposed a momentary alternative. To this extent, it is a critically important artistic work that strove to cultivate relations beyond the limits and perpetual violence of the nation-state. The 12 essays comprising this bilingual English\/Spanish record--written by a range of historians, theorists, curators, artists and cultural workers--enter into convivial exchange with the voices and language, bodies and performances of those who activated the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rafael Lozano-Hemmer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1941753884\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781941753880\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Inventory Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/14\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Rafael Lozano-Hemmer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47135439225087,"sku":"9781941753880","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_76294e37-106f-468c-aeaf-20e8d0b5cf24.jpg?v=1755010155","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rafael-lozano-hemmer-rafael-lozano-hemmer-9781941753880","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
