Natasha Ginwala is a curator, researcher, and writer. She is curator of Contour Biennale 8 and curatorial advisor for documenta 14 (2017). Recent projects include My East Is Your West featuring Shilpa Gupta and Rashid Rana at the 56th Venice Biennale; Still Against the Sky at KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin; and Corruption: Everybody Knows... with e-flux, New York within the framework of the SUPERCOMMUNITY project. Planetary Records as Documents toward Addressing Justice (lecture) The upcoming Contour Biennale 8 Polyphonic Worlds: Justice as Medium unfolds through artistic acts that challenge procedures of testimony, evidence production and witnessing, as well as the performative nature of the trial. As the neoliberal extractive imaginary conceives the earth as negative matter, we now face the unraveling of the limits of justice as a volatile crisis of ethics within the present. www.dutchartinstitute.eu/natasha-ginwala
Participating in Session 3: Tipping Points

Modernity is grounded in a conception of time that understands historical progression and change to be derived from a series of particular events, particular places, particular people, and particular actions. This particular history projects an anticipation of the future. We can witness this in the collective anxieties surrounding contemporary geopolitical events, from referenda, elections and territorial contests to infrastructural developments, oil spills, and bombings. How does this affect the societal bonds that keep us together, or keep us apart? The panel Tipping Points reflects on how events are conceptualised and gain significance through networks of power. Tipping Points is curated and moderated by Nick Axel.
