Concreta 11, Time of work, Nuria Enguita Mayo

Concreta 11 (Spring 2018) is dedicated to the question of labour in art and the financialisation of life: economy, housing, vacation, leisure time, and even thought, expression and desire get financialised. On the other hand, it looks at the disappearance of the traditional notion of labour, that is to say, as epicentre of social relations and reciprocal recognition. It counts with contributions by Silvia Federici, Max Jorge Hinderer, Alice Creischer, Jonathan Beller, Isidoro Valcárcel Medina, Theaster Gates, Elvira Dyangani Ose, Julia Bryan-Wilson, Ahlam Shibli, Mladen Stilinović, Anna Manubens, Mercedes Vicente and Ester Pegueroles.
