British artist Peter Liversidge writes numerous proposals for various projects and exhibitions, which range from simple to impossible.

Notes on Protesting is one of 45 proposals Liversidge gave Bonniers Konsthall in advance of his exhibition there. It was first realised with pupils from a school in East London between 2013 and 2014, and reperformed with students from a school outside Stockholm. What the British children thought about at the time was probably quite different from what the Swedish children did in 2018, also an election year in Sweden. This book documents both realisations and the factors that impacted the possible interpretation and meaning production of the work.
