Product Description

"Reaching Out: A Book about Agency, Care, Identity and... offers insights into how young practitioners approach publishing as a field of relations. In their respective contexts, the young people who developed the content of this publication met with artists, writers, curators and publishers to consider questions of authorship, voice and visibility. The resulting interviews and conversations, reflections and visual contributions offer propositions for how art institutions might use the strategies deployed here to connect with wider communities, different voices and new publics. This volume is part of Future Futures: Reaching Out, a three-year-long collaboration between Index – The Swedish Contemporary Art Foundation (Stockholm), PRAKSIS (Oslo) and PUBLICS (Helsinki). Each organisation works with a group of young people who for an entire year act as advisers and collaborators. Through a range of activities, Index Teen Advisory Board (ITAB), PRAKSIS Teen Advisory Board (PTAB) and PUBLICS Youth Advisory Board (PYAB) have reflected on how printed matter is still relevant in a digital world. Collectively they have explored how books, (maga)zines, etc. continue to act as meeting points between people and ideas across time and space. "
