Antennae #67 Gardening 2

Gardens are autobiographical territories- relentlessly co-authored by constantly evolving communities of gardeners, some equipped with spades, others with claws and some more endowed with long roots. In collaboration with the soil, this process of coauthoring results in open ended narratives that emerge and dissolve, leaving behind traces of minerals and decomposing matter.It might not be inappropriate to state that today, gardens in contemporary art have become more than a new genre-their unstoppable and over evolving fluidity a challenge to the austerity and fetishization of purity and timelessness that has characterized our western museums for many centuries.The current issue of Antennae and the one that will follow are dedicated to gardening as a creative process. Gardens are the new open-sky museums: outdoors, accessible, generous, and always a diverse multitude at once. They might just cradle new forms of art that our future truly needs.Featuring the work of Julianne Clark, Keiko Lee-Hem, Maggie Shirley, Deama Khader, Jil R. Benitez, Felicity Talman, Julia Lines Wilson, Eric Dever, Mauricio Tolosa, Kay Chubbuck, Pamela Martínez Rod, David Rimanelli, and Maria Thereza Alves
