This book reimagines what art institutions might become through the lens of three permaculture design principles—observe and interact, obtain a yield, and use and value diversity.
Structured in three parts, the book moves between theory, case studies, and in-depth conversations with artists, curators, and collectives who are already reshaping institutional practices from within. Part One, Observe and interact: transecting current multiple crises in art institutions, examines the limitations of European funding frameworks and their effects on institutional behaviour. Part Two, Obtain a yield: networks of relationships, resources, and practices, looks at how institutions might cultivate forms of reciprocity and resilience that extend beyond economic value. Part Three, Use and value diversity: imagi(ni)ng alternative narratives and futures, embraces diversity and multiplicity as conditions for institutional renewal.
Rather than providing conclusions, this book invites readers to imagine and co-create the art institutions of the future—fluid, diverse, and deeply intertwined with the ecosystems in which they exist. It will appeal to scholars and upper-level students of cultural studies; social change; cultural management and policy; gender studies; race and racism; and ecology and environment studies.
