Utopia/Dystopia

 - Utopia/Dystopia
Companion book / reader to the eponymous exhibition at MAAT, Lisbon. It features previously unpublished essays on the ongoing transition from the notion of utopia toward its mirror image: dystopia.
The book Utopia/Dystopia is a companion to the curatorial project by the same title that opened at Lisbon's MAAT – Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology. It is not exactly an exhibition catalogue, but rather a reader containing previously unpublished essays on the ongoing transition from the five-hundred-year old literary notion of utopia, toward the pervasive, everyday imposition of its mirror image: dystopia.
Published on the occasion of the eponymous exhibition at MAAT – Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology, Lisbon, from March 22 to August 21, 2017.
Edited by Pedro Gadanho, João Laia, Susana Ventura.
Texts by Franco Berardi Bifo, Rosi Braidotti, Keller Easterling, Pedro Gadanho, João Laia, Antoine Picon, Susana Ventura.
