CURA.

They do not represent the world from a single perspective: they narrate it from multiple viewpoints, with their ability to subvert perceptions and connect differences, participating in processes of cultural transformation.

With five portrait covers, featuring Sung Tieu, Cao Fei, Christelle Oyiri, Tabita Rezaire, Róisín Tapponi, an incredibly rich board of authors, and over 420 pages, CURA.46 Soft Power presents the artists who are redefining the geographies of art today, actively intervening in the collective imagination not only through speculative or futuristic aesthetics, but across a variety of media. Artists who embody the ability of art to build worlds, dismantling dominant paradigms through new storylines and the possibility of reinterpreting the past or imagining possible futures: techno-cultural and postcolonial identities, decolonial futures, and speculative imaginaries capable of developing alternative visions intertwine with the memory of home, family experience, and history.
