'Gallery as Community brings together curators, directors and programmers from UK galleries to debate "community" and art. It explores notions of pedagogy, site, the social and political role of the gallery and considers reasons for the proliferation of programming relating to social context in the last decade. These texts reveal the ideas, histories, institutions and individuals shaping the terrain and provide a candid insight into how contemporary galleries operate.' (Back cover)
Includes biographies of contributors and summaries of past projects associated with community and education.
