The book brings together fourteen artists born after Independence, with distinct personal\u00a0histories, perspectives, and artistic visions. Contemporary art practices that have emerged in, or engaged with
\nthis region, are in themselves tools of resistance and rebellion, and are, as such, central to the decolonisation\u00a0strategies that artists have used to understand, analyse and resist the socio-economic impact of everyday events\u00a0and their own personal realities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12596,"template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[193],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-12607","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-livros","7":"product_shipping_class-atlantica","9":"first","10":"onbackorder","11":"taxable","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/12607","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12596"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12607"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=12607"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/hangar.com.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=12607"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
