ArtReview's September 2024 issue examines global networks through art and theory

ArtReview's September 2024 issue investigates interconnected global realities via artists and thinkers. Bouchra Khalili's films recover forgotten liberation histories in North Africa and the Middle East, linking them to current struggles from Algeria to Palestine. Françoise Vergès, in her new book 'A Programme of Absolute Disorder: Decolonizing the Museum', critiques Western museums' politics, arguing that inclusion without structural change is insufficient. Izabella Scott's essay explores how artists like Mercedes Azpilicueta, Shannon Alonzo, and Dalton Paula use fiction to rework biased historical records, with Paula's painting 'Zeferina' (2018) featured on the cover. Revital Cohen and Tuur Van Balen discuss their work exposing commodity supply chains. Reviews cover Pacita Abad's show at Tina Kim Gallery in New York, 'Namedropping' at Mona in Tasmania, and Minoru Nomata at White Cube in London. Critics highlight readings such as Roger Crowley's 'Spice' and Maria Balshaw's 'Gathering of Strangers'. The issue includes a comic by Joseph Kelley and is available via subscription or online shop.
