The Present is the Form of All Life: The Time Capsules of Ant Farm and LSTPerhaps most well known for the iconic desert monolith Cadillac Ranch, and spectacular stunts like Media Burn, the radical architecture and media art group, Ant Farm, created an abundance of works across disciplines - including video, print publications, built environments, and performance. Throughout their career (1968-1979), Ant Farm conceived a series of "time capsule" works that turned away from the typical idea of the time capsule as a reliable means of cultural representation and preservation.

Bringing together the philosophy of art and politics, Martin Lang provides a comprehensive examination of militant art activism: its history, its advocates and the aesthetic theory behind it. Protest art is not a new concept and yet this book argues that after the terrorist attacks of 9/11 distinctly 21st-century forms of art activism emerged.
