Abstract
What I am Reading Now… 2024
Monthly Digital Publication
Date: Jan.–Dec. 2024
Edited by Hao, What I am Reading Now… (WIARN) is an ongoing monthly digital art publishing project which provides a critically engaged and supportive space for Black practitioners and practitioners of colour to share ideas, research, and their writing.
Underscoring the ongoing Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement and considering the specific position of an art school gallery in relation to knowledge production and its dissemination, WIARN is a sustained context for original insights. Reflecting and embedding the ethos of the BLM movement and its capacity for social change through curatorial praxis, WIARN contributes to current research and thinking on decoloniality in contemporary cultural practices.
WIARN was featured in Art Monthly’s Selected Digital Resources.
In 2024, twelve issues were published featuring both esteemed and emerging academics, artists, writers, designers, musicians, activist and museum directors from across the world including Hamja Ahsan, Dayna Ash, Nhã Thuyên, Mona Benyamin, Rosalind Nashashibi, Grace Ndiritu, Yasmine El Rifaii, Yasmina Price, Aurella Yussuf,
Chrystel Oloukoï, Ajamu X, Sutapa Biswas.
