Since the turn of the millennium, artists have been writing, and circulating their writing, like never before. The seventy-five texts gathered here- essays, criticism, manifestos, fiction, diaries, scripts, blog posts, and tweets- chart a complex era in the art world and the world at large, weighing in on the exigencies of our times in unexpected and inventive ways.
