En savoir plus sur le livre
Sweet Sixties is a trans-regional research initiative that explores the intersections of art, research, media, and education across Europe, the Middle East, western and central Asia, Latin America, and northern Africa. It engages a diverse group of experimental arts and research entities, as well as individual artists and scholars, to uncover hidden histories and underexposed cultural exchanges from the 1960s. This era saw landscapes and cities in protectorates and former colonies, from India to the Maghreb and the Soviet Republics to new southern hemisphere states, infused with modernity that often transformed into vernacular expressions. The research navigates the boundaries between private and public domains, revealing a world filled with displacements and uncanny gestures. Communication tools emerge only to be stifled before they can fully materialize, reflecting the tensions of postmodernity. The 1960s resonate with a spirit of emancipation, while new art-scapes are enriched by diasporas and complex dialogues among Soviet, North and South American, and Western European influences. This publication focuses on the narratives of a parallel avant-garde, whose presence remains largely unrecognized in the Western canon.
