We are celebrating the release of the magazine accompanying the exhibition Planetary Peasants. As we are living through a shift from the global to the planetary, agriculture and the question of food occupy key positions within this transition. Enlightened planetarism means acknowledging the polyphony of life – encompassing people of all cultures and languages, as well as the expressive forms of animals and plants, rocks and tides.
We warmly invite participants, friends, and all those interested to join us at Spore and explore and discuss the multiple perspectives of Planetary Peasants. An evening on 500 years of globalization, colonialism, capitalism – and the dynamics of resistance. With curators, participating artists, authors, and designers of the magazine.
The exhibition Planetary Peasants is on view at the Kunstmuseum Moritzburg Halle (Saale) until September 14.
The bilingual (German-English) publication, published by MMKoehn Verlag in August, documents the 30 artistic works in images and texts, framed by a glossary of statements and research findings contributed by all participating artists, along with short essays by invited authors. These are complemented by entries from historical texts on agriculture, art, and revolution – from the time of the German Peasants’ War to the present.
