ARTMargins is pleased to announce the publication of ARTMargins Print 9:2. The current issue of the journal ties together several threads that run across our contemporary “geography of art,” entangling territories and themes once divided by ideological and political barriers. Three articles, an exhibition review, a Document section, and an Artist Project all direct our attention to certain tendencies in late-20th/early-21st-century art, culture, and politics: from Cold War networks of anticapitalist solidarity between the Soviet Union, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East, to connections and convergences situated both within and beyond the major centers of the Western post-World War II neo-avant-gardes (Paris, New York, and Buenos Aires). Fast-forwarding to the present, we then look at some of the more recent forms of cultural production in Southeast Asia (Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia) and Africa (Senegal), and conclude with an aesthetic meditation offered by Berlin-based artist Vadim Zakharov

We, the editors of ARTMargins, wish to express our solidarity with the anti-racist protests taking place around the world triggered by the police killings of African-Americans in the United States. We stand alongside our black colleagues and students fighting against white supremacy and racial inequality, and support the ongoing mass movements demanding racial justice and concrete social change from within the public health uncertainty of a global pandemic. We take the opportunity to re-state here, forcefully and unequivocally, that Black Lives Matter.
