This 104-page paperback book by Daniel X. O’Neil and Shawn-Laree O’Neil delves into “The where, what and how of a modern art movement”.
Arte Agora is art that is made, sold, or placed in the public way.
It is where outsider artists meet street artists, outside. Interaction with a confluence of other public actors—municipal buffers, national advertisers, construction workers, scaffold assemblers, and passersby—creates synchronous and asynchronous dialogue in places of density. This book builds on the publication of Arte Agora in May 2019, where the term was first defined with laid out examples that pulled together seemingly separate artistic practices.
Collected here, and described in detail, are the places, pieces and techniques used by practitioners of Arte Agora. Arte Agora is art that happens outside, in the marketplace, with human transaction and constant renewal at its core. It is the foundation for a constant conversation among these actors.
