THE ARTS OF IMPRISONMENT

The Arts of Imprisonment explores every connection that the title suggests, from the architecture specially designed to disenchant the imprisoned to the creative powers that some prisoners have been able to summon in the face of systematic oppression. A serious contribution to the prisons literature.

Rod Morgan, University of Bristol, UK and former Chairman of the
Youth Justice Board and HM Chief Inspector of Probation, UK

Leonidas Cheliotis has provided a profoundly scholarly and highly readable exploration of the many ways in which the arts and prison life intersect. The contributions collected in this volume are relevant globally but also offer local depth and range from the German Red Army Faction to US prison choirs, from educational and therapeutic programs to media initiatives and the arts of resistance. They treat, in refreshing detail, efforts to reclaim dignity and agency but they also raise issues of denial, gender trouble, and other current debates, through the symbiosis of arts and aesthetics with the world of the imprisoned.
