All Things Laid Dormant
Benedetta Casagrande

All Things Laid Dormant questions the ways in which we relate to other animals, the space they occupy in our personal and collective imagination, intraspecific coexistence, and the possibility of constructing new forms of kinship and intimacy in a context of mass extinction. Articulated through a series of encounters with the non-human world mediated by the implicit ambiguity of photography, that simultaneously facilitates and hinders contact, All Things Laid Dormant is both an ode and a lament, an act of love and an expression of mourning that embodies the suffering of loss and the desire to find a place and a sense of belonging within the fragile context of our time.

Poor Artists

In this eye-opening journey through the bizarre world of contemporary art, criticism duo The White Pube tell the story of art like never before.

Featuring dialogue from anonymised interviews with real people in the art world who have all had to wrestle with the same decisions - including a Turner Prize winner or two, a few ghosts, a Venice Biennale fraudster and a communist messiah - Poor Artists is a powerful testimony to the emotional, existential and financial experience of artists today.
