We Contain Multitudes

01 Oct 2023

This publication is an invitation to openly and critically engage with multitudes of artistic learning methods such as making, listening, talking, researching, voicing, questioning and collaborating. The contributions between these pages open up other ways, perspectives and practices that are often closer to hand than we think.

Relationality, embodied methodologies, ecologies of collaboration, archival interventions, situating knowledges, counter-narratives, polyphony, reimagining research, unlearning school, oral publishing, voices, ‘corpoliteracy’, camp, attuning, embodiment, speculative spatial practices.

This publication is one outcome of the Quality Agreement Other Voices, and has been produced by BEAR Fine Art in collaboration with ArtEZ Press.

We Contain Multitudes has been selected by the student jury of De Best Verzorgde Boeken 2023 as one of the best books of 2023 and will be exhibited at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam later this summer 2024.
