Utopia*Art*Politics: Experimenting with artistic practices in radical imagination and politics

The Utopia*Art*Politics Collection brings together diverse ideas on how artistic practices can help reimagine and remake our world. The concept of utopia has a dark colonial past that lives on through overgrown dreams that leave little space for other possible futures. This collection explores the alternative potential of utopia—not as an elite blueprint of predefined ends—but as a radically collective method for justice. It includes provocations and insights by 33 artist-researcher-practitioners who participated in the Utopia*Art*Politics Sessions, held July 3-5, 2024 in Utrecht, hosted by the Urban Futures Studio, Community Portal @ BAK—basis voor actuele kunst, and Stichting Moira.
