Notes de l'éditeur
- Activism is quite simply taking action to effect social change; this can occur in a myriad of ways and in a variety of forms. Often it is concerned with ‘how to change the world’ through social, political, economic or environmental change. This can be led by individuals but is often done collectively through social movements. Demanding solutions to contemporary problems through the taking of oppositional stances to mainstream policies. This is the type of campaigning activism that includes protests, strikes, demonstrations etc. They key to this type of activism is that it is demand-driven with the aim being a change in policy, practice or operations. This sort of action often takes the form of short-term actions, but can also be long-term sustained campaigns. 2) Undertaking activism which manifests itself through the creation of alternatives to the dominant system through the construction of new ways of social behaviour. Key to this type of activism is the creation of new structures and alternatives within society, often with the hope that they will lead as an example which others will also imitate and develop. It is often concerned with ways of living and meeting people’s needs such as housing, food and education. Examples of this would be housing and food cooperatives, social centres, worker cooperatives, new age travellers, squats etc. This sort of activism is often carried out by collectives of people over long periods of time, though this is not always the case. See the Alternative DiY section for more information on this type of activism. 3) Revolutionary activism that is concerned with fundamental change of society and its major institutions.
- Built in northwest Skåne. It mainly consists of several wooden structures, erected driftwood, planks and tree branches. The work is illegally located in Kullaberg's nature reserve, which since the first version of the building in 1980 has led to recurring legal processing between the artist and the County Administrative Board in Skåne County. Parts of the work have been fire-hardened on various occasions, and Vilk's reconstruction following a fire in 2016 led to day fines in Helsingborg district court.
