C& Magazine Marks Editorial Transition with 'Notes on Editorial Dis/Continuities'
C& Magazine has released 'Notes on Editorial Dis/Continuities,' which reflects on the themes of editorial continuity and stewardship, coinciding with Naima Hassan's new role as Managing Editor. This article, co-written by Hassan and Editor-in-Chief Ethel-Ruth Tawe, draws on Marlene Nourbese Philip's use of repetition to reinterpret and analyze archives. The authors incorporate elements from the C& Cyclopedia, a digital resource that connects contemporary art figures and networks globally, presenting their insights through annotations that serve as revisions and reformulations. Limited print editions can be found at C& offices in Berlin and Nairobi. Since 2022, Hassan has served as Associate Curator and Archivist at Guest Artists Space (G.A.S.) Foundation and Yinka Shonibare Foundation, and co-founded the archival platform SITAAD with Leyla Degan. Tawe, an interdisciplinary artist and researcher, previously curated 'African Ancient Futures' and is engaged in ongoing audiovisual projects like 'Image Frequency Modulation.'
