Out now: Szine#3
Extractivism Everywhere
Longread — Oct 10, 2024
The publication was originated from the public program Towards Post-Extractive Cultures which was hosted at the Stedelijk Museum in February 2023. Its various rituals, workshops and lectures made us reflect on the extractive practices that capitalist-driven industries employ to exploit resources and create global emergencies. However, we recognized that cultural organisations also have a lengthy history of extracting visual aesthetics from their origins without proper redistribution or recognition.
Contents Szine #3
The Szine begins with an introduction to extractivism and how a growing post-extractivism movement has emerged in response. Afterwards, manager of education and inclusion Emma Harjadi Herman and design curator Amanda Pinatih are joined by four co-organizers of Towards Post-Extractive Cultures: Teresa Borasino, Vasna Ramasar, Aldo Esparza Ramos, and Gustavo García López to discuss their relationship with post-extractivism practices and their experiences in preparing and carrying out the program at the Stedelijk Museum. Finally, we asked them to reflect on the lessons learned and to further uncover the inherent complexities and contradictions of post-extractivism when applied in practice.
