Today Tuesday October 16, 2024 ~ Israel has dropped more bombs on Gaza than London, Dresden and Hamburg combined suffered in the entirety of the Second World War. Over 160,000 buildings have been flattened. Gaza is now and will be for years to come a land of grey rubble: broken concrete mixed with the decaying corpses of the innocent. DON'T STOP TALKING ABOUT GAZA & LEBANON ~ WE ASK: ACCOUNTABILITY + JUSTICE. WE ASK: A POLITICAL SOLUTION WHICH NOT ONLY STOPS THE GENOCIDE BUT ALSO BRINGS APARTHEID AND OCCUPATION TO AN END ~ OUR GOVERNMENTS, INSTITUTIONS AND COMPANIES HAVE BEEN COMPLICIT IN SO MANY WAYS AND FOR SO MANY YEARS ~ THIS STARTED LONG, LONG BEFORE OCTOBER 7, 2023.

Clementine Edwards (DAI, 2018) launches a new publication in collaboration with Joe Miranda, at Same Page Art Book Fair, Melbourne on 19-20th October 2024. The publication combines Clementine's fiction writing with Joe Miranda's photographs and design. Clementine also has instigated a series of monthly reading groups on science-fiction in translation at Rib in Rotterdam in November and December. Participants will pay attention to how texts build worlds – anticipating, challenging and enacting lived realities – and how they move in different temporal and cultural contexts. A motivation for the reading group is to explore ways of putting language to experience of queer life while keeping the experience and the learning that comes with it soft, impressionable, with a possibility of spill.

On 15 October 2024, as part of Adelita Husni Bey’s most recent and ongoing research into water infrastructures in Libya, from colonialism to the present day, the artist will join Sitesize, a Barcelona-based collective whose current research is focused on the historical layers of water use and abstraction. Together, they will propose two exercises with the goal of exchanging methodologies, knowledge, and experiences of water custody, on the colonial continuum and hydro-extractivist practices. Through their respective case studies, their exercises will address how water is understood as a resource, how it is experienced somatically, how water is remembered, and how the, at times slippery, dynamic between oppressor and oppressed can be understood through the lens of infrastructure. If you are in Barcelona on that day join Sara Alberani (DAI, 2025) who co-curated SOWING ARCHIVES ~ IT Out Off Barcelona together with Chiara Siravo. The public programme offers a workshop and a lecture. The artists involved, Adelita Husni Bey, Muna Mussie, and Daniela Ortiz happen to have all 3 been guest lecturing at DAI in near or distant pasts, in different constellations.
