Citizen Artist 2016-2018 is a publication that reflects on the process of the studio 468 award programme, CITIZEN ARTIST. It demonstrates the richness and diversity of each CITIZEN ARTIST awardees’ practices, and reflects on their context and experience, the VISITING PROJECT, and a reflective witnessing essay by philosopher Aislinn O’Donnell. The publication examines and explores the questions posed by CITIZEN ARTIST that sought to interrogate our current state of being and inform new thinking and artistic practices. The proposals challenged, explored, and responded to:
What possibilities does art provide? What is the art of politics? What is the place of arts and culture in our Republic? What is the place of artistic practices in Dublin 8, Dublin City, in our present and future Republic? How have we constructed our state’s value systems? What might true equality look like? How did we, or can we truly embrace all our citizens, culturally, socially and economically? What do we mean by community? What is or could be a Republic beyond 2016?
