| Summary: | Queer people have had to create archives as alternate institutions or para-institutional collections, specifically around embodied materiality, because they were systematically not seen as worth retaining within traditional archival practices. Propelled by the editor's dedicated collecting and explorations of experimental living practices and materiality, this book is a radical collection of overlooked, forgotten and deliberately sidelined IBPOC and LGBTQ2S+ archives. Edited by Jarrett Earnest, 'Devotion: Today's Future Becomes Tomorrow's Archive' contains essays and interviews, accompanied by reproductions of notes, diagrams, works of art and rare ephemera in this publication which represents an archive of overlooked and excluded archives. |
