Alastair Fuad-Luke

An alternative, complementary outlook on the questions raised by this edition of the Biennale. Pluralistic in scope, thought provoking, and visually bold, Alter— is a collection on Alter-Realities as a way to re-make worlds, re-animate ourselves and forge new relations while rejecting unsustainable hegemonies.

With each of the installments, we aim to explore different sub-themes within Alter-Realities framed in Alastair Fuad-Luke’s curatorial agenda for the Biennale. We present fresh reflections on the present moment and better ways of being and creating with each other in times of crisis and contagion through the lens of design.

Alastair Fuad-Luke, Bianca Elzembaumer & Fabio Franz, António Gorgel Pinto and Paula Reaes Pinto, Paulo Moreira, and Nina Paim & Cherry-Ann Davies are the editors of the collection. The design is by the 1234 collective, composed by Irina Pereira, João Castro, Miguel Almeida and Serafim Mendes. The visual narratives found on the cover and inside the notebooks are by the artist Beatriz Blasi, in partnership with 1234, and were created using the Google Maps platform.
