268,95 kr. Jimmie Durham & A Stick in the Forest by the Side of the Road is the outcome of a collective undertaking that came about from Jimmie Durham who gathered together a group of artists in 2021 to form "a community on the road" and contribute in collaboration with him to documenta fifteen in Kassel in 2022.Durham did not expect the members of the collective -Bev Koski, Elisa Strinna, Hamza Badran, Iain Chambers, Joen Vedel, Jone Kvie, Maria Thereza Alves, and Wilma Lukatsch - to elaborate a single work or theme. Instead, they would share knowledge, empathy, and humour and leave open the possibility that their different contributions could entwine.The writing, images and perspectives found in this volume, including essays by authors also invited by the collective to contribute, reflect their heterogenous genesis in artistic processes, critical pedagogy and multiple cultural practices. Brought together under a common commitment to the rejuvenation of inherited languages in the arts and contemporary culture, the authors have sought in their different ways to sustain proposals whose poetics suggest, stimulate and sustain the politics of inhabiting the planet in a radically diverse fashion.

- The Arts of Memory and the Pressures of History
509,95 kr. This book examines how we can conceive of a ''postcolonial museum'' in the contemporary epoch of mass migrations, the internet and digital technologies. The authors consider the museum space, practices and institutions in the light of repressed histories, sounds, voices, images, memories, bodies, expression and cultures. Focusing on the transformation of museums as cultural spaces, rather than physical places, is to propose a living archive formed through creation, participation, production and innovation. The aim is to propose a critical assessment of the museum in the light of those transcultural and global migratory movements that challenge the historical and traditional frames of Occidental thought. This involves a search for new strategies and critical approaches in the fields of museum and heritage studies which will renew and extend understandings of European citizenship and result in an inevitable re-evaluation of the concept of ''modernity'' in a so-called globalised and multicultural world.
