The Ungovernables captures the perspectives, preoccupations, and experiences of an inventive and informed generation of international artists who came of age after the independence and revolutionary movements of the 1960s and 1970s. This important volume features thirty-four artists and artist collectives working in painting, sculpture, drawing, performance, video, and other activities. Through explorations of form, objecthood, material, and temporality, these artists negotiate time and their experience of our contemporary moment, often demonstrating a profound mistrust of permanence. Many of the works are provisional, site-specific, and performative, reflecting an attitude of possibility and faith in the contingent nature of our time. The book includes a substantive essay on this international group of artists by curator Eungie Joo and essays and other contributions from many of the artists featured in the exhibition, as well as short profiles on each. The 2012 New Museum Triennial features thirty-four artists, artist groups, and temporary collectives - totaling over fifty participants - born between the mid-1970s and mid-1980s, many of whom have never before exhibited in the US. The Ungovernables, ' the second triennial exhibition at the New Museum, acknowledges the impossibility of fully representing a generation in formation and instead embraces the energy of that generation's urgencies. These urgencies are formal and philosophical, material and ideological. They stem from the unique experiences of this generation who came of age in the aftermath of the independence and revolutionary movements that promised to topple Western colonialism.
