Fluent – 2016–2026

À l'occasion du dixième anniversaire de fluent, cet ouvrage retrace l'histoire et la programmation de l'organisation artistique depuis 2016.

fluent is a non-profit arts organisation, presenting cycles of consecutive exhibition modules, texts, and public programs. Founded in 2016, its current location within a glass pavilion in Santander defines and broadens the nature of its programs. This architectural form is a prelude to the desire for making visible how forms become socially possible, structured, and distributed.
fluent promotes interdisciplinary interactions and collaborations with different institutional, non-profit and educational systems, both nationally and internationally. This also connects to the will, developed over the years, to rehearse ecologies of institution-making in response to different socio-natural and political structuring: What does it mean to be a small contemporary arts organisation in an age of extraction, racism, financialization, invisibility, extinction, nationalism, depoliticization and violence? How can we contribute to a desire for collective shift?
Opening up to multiple voices and practices which constitute the "us"; fluent radicalises imagination as a means to propitiate new forms of ecology. Through this, fluent aims to examine the impact and potential of forms as learning and unlearning processes, both individually and within collective dynamics. Since 2021 fluent also hosts a working-space and a specialized bookshop.
The book traces the organization's archive and includes an exhaustive chronology of over 300 pages that examines its own narrative while revisiting its history. Through materials including floorplans, graphic documentation, texts, drawings, poems, previously untranslated contents, and editorial gestures it delves into the organization's ongoing and incomplete archive and the polyphonic nature of its histories.
