What are some of the conceptual questions at stake in Imagined Boundaries–Encounters with New Model Communities?

Lucy Davis: Imagingings of the "authentic local community", the "particular culture", or indeed the "specific artistic discipline" do not exist in a vacuum. They are contextually constructed and come about, for example, in antagonism with what are perceived to be greater entities. Or they develop in contrast to a homogenising discipline. Or, in equivalence with other particular localities, cultures, or identities that are imagined to experience a similar situation to "our own".
