{"product_id":"many-of-them-12","title":"MANY OF THEM #12","description":"Is it possible to imagine still? Can we envision the creation of new aesthetics that go beyond traditional capitalist agendas? Can we redream new forms of representation? Conceiving new possible futures against those who attempt to constrain our imagination is critical amid the world’s rapidly developing polycrisis. With a forward-looking ethos in mind, MANY OF THEM #12 embraces the concept of redreaming, a notion explored by Nigerian poet and novelist BEN OKRI, which refers to the act of reactivating our capacity to dream alternative futures and images yet to be seen. In a cultural landscape overwhelmed by the incessant flood of pictures, algorithmic surveillance, copy-paste media creation processes, and the commodification of desire, redreaming new futures becomes a catalyst for change, allowing for a radical reawakening. As OKRI tells HANS ULRICH OBRIST, “We are still primitives to the powers of dreaming and redreaming our possibilities as a species”—we have yet to fully embrace our multidimensionality.\r\n\r\nRedreaming is a political and ontological repositioning that invites us to question the forms through which reality has been historically constructed, constrained, and represented. The artists and thinkers in this issue propose shifting the terms of understanding, unpacking our shared fears about the future, and bringing poetry to the activist site. Across disparate media and from wildly different backgrounds—whether looking within or looking without—they propose an awe-inspiring range of ways to redream what comes next. This is not an escape, but a reconstruction. We must look at the world with new eyes.\r\n\r\n\r\nPlus, in this issue multiple interviews and fashion stories were created in collaboration with, ARTHUR JAFA, CATHERINE OPIE, JUERGEN TELLER, BEN OKRI, HANS ULRICH OBRIST, MERIEM BENNANI, DURAN LANTINK, BLOMMERS\/SCHUMM, HILARY LLOYD, ALESSIO BOLZONI, RAPHAEL BLISS, ALEX MADER, EILEEN MYLES, ARI VERSLUIS,  DEA KULUMBEGASHVILI, PRECIOUS OKOYOMON, PONTE, ANTONIO MACARRO, THOMAS LOHR, MAX KUWERTZ, SIYI LI, CLIFFORD PRINCE KING, and KIYAN WILLIAMS.","brand":"Antenne Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53837510934866,"sku":"AB8925","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/antennebooks.com\/fr\/products\/many-of-them-12","provider":"Antenne Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
