Description
Pidginization as Curatorial Method: Messing with Languages and Praxes
A new vision for activist curatorial practice is proposed by Bonaventure Soh Bejeng Ndikung in this book. Pidgin languages are seen as expressions of resistance to settler colonialism, while pidginization is approached as a way to curate the world, creating spaces for encounter and pluralities.
This book offers a new perspective on curating and is part of the Thoughts on Curating series edited by Steven Henry Madoff. It features Ndikung's unique blend of thinking, writing, and rhythmic beat from musicians, philosophers, linguists, poets, and novelists.
