Publication issue d'un projet curatorial et de recherche
invitant des artistes, des militants et des universitaires à imaginer de nouvelles formes de résistance culturelle et politique à travers divers projets d'émancipation, à partir de la philosophie du quilombisme développée par l'artiste, écrivain et militant afro-brésilien Abdias Nascimento.
This reader, published on the occasion of the project O Quilombismo: Of Resisting and Insisting. Of Flight as Fight. Of Other Democratic Egalitarian Political Philosophies held at Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW) in 2023, brings the themes of the eponymous group exhibition to those interested in wider conceptual explorations around its multifaceted curatorial threads: insurgence, resistance, liberation, spirituality, ecstasy, new cultural forms and aesthetic paradigms, quilombo as queering, and the reimagination of collectivity.
Anchored by newly translated historical texts, poetry, essays, and conversations, the publication engages with the founding figures and initial conceptual articulations of quilombismo in detail, but also explores how it has found resonance in disparate practices globally.
Publié à l'occasion du projet éponyme à la Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW), Berlin, en 2023.
