Role of the Artist in Society

This unique interview book stems from the days when South Africa`snotorious Apartheid regime collapsed. It was written in January of 1988and I present the talks as they were recorded then. It brought me straight into the heart of the cultural resistance whilesimultaenously revising anthropological research, too. I looked at the contribution the Arts could play in terminating racial segregationand asked respondents if they would use their creative activity in this regardrather than practicing Art-for-Arts-sake?The book includes a detailed bibliography, a comprehensive set of footnotesand a black and white photo of respondents.
