Littoral art
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Littoral art is a term used by Canadian artist and writer Bruce Barber to describe art occuring outside of the institutions of the artworld.[1] It is a manifestation of Nicolas Bourriaud's relational aesthetics and is public and community-based, emphasizing the interaction between artists and spectators.[1] The idea derives from Habermas's concept of communicative action.
