Gropius Bau Journal

For the first issue, poet Ishion Hutchinson delves into the lived existences beneath photographs, finding movement and fugitivity rather than cliches of frozen time. Robert Maharajh considers the work of Otobong Nkanga and Theaster Gates, whose wayward, visionary practices open up new pathways for art and its social dimensions. Curator and writer Natasha Ginwala and independent scholar and curator Kathy-Ann Tan, thinking with artist Wu Tsang, consider the position of the outsider and the migrant. And artist Zheng Bo brings formative Daoist eco-thinking to his walk-reading in Berlin’s Tiergarten.
