In 2021, Etel Adnan and Simone Fattal recorded an intimate conversation about the Mediterranean at their Parisian home: "There are many Mediterraneans: the geographical, the historical, the philosophical... the personal, the one we swim, and we have swum in. It‘s an experience to swim, it is something you can‘t explain to somebody who never swam. This feeling of being(...)

Summary:
In 2021, Etel Adnan and Simone Fattal recorded an intimate conversation about the Mediterranean at their Parisian home: "There are many Mediterraneans: the geographical, the historical, the philosophical... the personal, the one we swim, and we have swum in. It‘s an experience to swim, it is something you can‘t explain to somebody who never swam. This feeling of being held up by this water." The third cycle of TBA21–Academy’s curatorial fellowship program "The Current", spanning from 2021–2023 focused on the Mediterraneans in a program entitled "Thus waves come in pairs" after a line from Adnan’s poem "Sea and Fog." It pointed to the necessity of thinking of, and thinking with, the Mediterraneans as plural—plural as their interconnected cultures, and bodies of sweet and salty water, and possibilities of narrating their current transformations.

Summary:
Un manifeste collectif pour des écoles d'art féministes. Retranscrire un cycle de conférences, entretiens, workshops et groupes de discussion féministes intersectionnels dans une école d'art s'avère crucial pour partager des outils d'émancipation et bousculer les critères implicites qui structurent nos regards et nos pratiques (identification aux normes visuelles occidentales, représentations romantico-capitalistes de l'artiste-auteur·rice…). Cet ouvrage a pour premier objet de partager les contenus accueillis et produits à l'École Supérieure d'Art de Clermont Métropole entre 2017 et 2022. Il est aussi l'occasion de travailler avec un groupe d'étudiant·es, d'artistes et de chercheureuses, pour penser la manière d'élaborer collectivement des invitations mais aussi l'élaboration de l'ouvrage ; il est un outil pour un travail pédagogique collectif et idéalement horizontal au cœur d'une institution hiérarchisée et hiérarchisante.

Summary:
When the New Yorker art critic Peter Schjeldahl published his widely read autobiographical essay "The art of dying" in December 2019, he reported that he had lung cancer and his oncologist had given him six months to live, but his experimental treatment was showing some improvement. "These extra months," he wrote, "are a luxury that I hope to have put to good use.” And he did. "The art of dying: Writings, 2019-2022" begins with that essay and collects all 46 pieces that he wrote for the magazine before his death in October 2022. These last works express Schjeldahl’s hard-won reflections on art and life, against the backdrop of an intensely anxious period in America, spanning the pandemic, the George Floyd protests, the 2020 presidential election, and the war in Ukraine. Schjeldahl, who was the leading art writer of his generation, wrote with generosity and openness about the art world during these tempestuous three years.

Summary:
"Art monster" takes readers to the margins of the professional art world, populated by unseen artists who make a living working behind the scenes in galleries and museums while making their own art to little acclaim. Writing in a style that is by turns direct and poetic, personal and lyrical, Marin Kosut reflects on the experience of dedicating your life to art and how the art world can crush you. She examines the push toward professionalization, the devaluing of artistic labor, and the devastating effects of gentrification on cultural life. Her nonlinear essays are linked by central themes—community, nostalgia, precarity, alienation, estrangement—that punctuate working artists’ lives. At once ethnography, memoir, tirade, and love letter, "Art monster" is a street-level meditation on the predicament of artists in the late capitalist metropolis.
