ArtReview October 2021 Issue Explores Networks, Collaborations, and Alternative Art Spaces
The October 2021 edition of ArtReview delves into evolving artistic communities. Chris Fite-Wassilak highlights the transition within London's alternative art scene from conventional project spaces to private pop-up ventures. Torkwase Dyson's exhibition, 'Liquid a Place,' showcases sculptures that serve as collaborative platforms alongside artists such as Ron Trent and Gaika, focusing on connections within the Black diaspora. Fi Churchman examines Deana Lawson's photography, which portrays Black communities worldwide. Jaider Esbell, an artist from the Makuxi, tackles environmental challenges in Brazil through 'artivism.' Anicka Yi engages in a dialogue with Gary Zhexi Zhang about the impact of science in uncovering truths. The issue also features Stewart Home's critique of colonial memorials, Ben Eastham on 'Sun & Sea,' Stuart Munro's report from Tokyo, and Ross Simonini's interview with Anthea Hamilton, along with reviews of the Bienal de São Paulo and Manchester International Festival.
