Waiting [electronic resource].

Shifter 2021

Open access content

Waiting is usually what we do between things. It is the space between two destinations, an empty and anxious time to fill with distractions. But when we look more closely, we see that waiting is also an activity in itself, bristling with energy, uncertainty, and inequality. In Shifter’s twenty-fifth issue we ask, what does the condition of waiting reveal about us, our world, and the natural environment that sustains it? Waiting began as eight online sessions featuring artists, historians, and theorists who grappled with this question. These events, and the resulting publication, are co-hosted by MIT List Visual Arts Center and Contemporary Arts Center, Cincinnati in conjunction with solo exhibitions by Sreshta Rit Premnath.
