Dear Antoni- I think what is meant by non-sanctioned art is the art of resistance, connected perhaps to social movements, or dissidence. It could be... making insurrectionary spectacles!

It would certainly mean outside of state control... have a look at Robbie Conal's wonderful work in L.A., or that of AgitArt in San Francisco. And there's a conference loosely about this in Concordia, October- when I know you'll be busy with your own- but you can check it out at:http://design.concordia.ca/declaration/ Hope that is a help. regards, Deborah
