Publisher's Synopsis
Raqs Media Collective (Monica Narula, Jeebesh Bagchi, Shuddhabrata Sengupta) have been variously described as artists, media practitioners, curators, researchers, editors and catalysts of cultural processes. Their work, which has been exhibited widely in major international museums and galleries, locates them in the intersections of contemporary art, historical enquiry, philosophical speculation, research and theory - often taking the form of installations, online and offline media objects, performances and encounters. This book, the accompanying catalogue to the artists' show at the Whitworth in 2017/18, explores the many themes of Raqs Media Collective's practice.
