This month, Ibraaz also releases the official question for Platform 006:
What role can the archive play in developing and sustaining a critical and culturally located art history?
Platform 006 will be launched at Ibraaz's Critical Art Forum to be held at Tate Modern on 9th November, 2013. It will also form the basis of volume 2 in our series of books to be published with I.B. Tauris in 2014. To view the full platform remit, follow this link.
In the lead up to Platform 006, we will be publishing more essays, interviews and artists' projects, including an extensive series of reviews of FIAF's World Nomads Tunisia Festival in New York earlier this year, a series of recordings by 98Weeks at Home Works 6, and a specially-commissioned project by Shuruq Harb.
