ARABOFUTURS: Art, science fiction and new imaginations - Exhibition catalogue

ARABOFUTURS is an invitation to enter the dreamlike world of Arab anticipation. This book opens the door to new forms of the unknown and bears witness to the aesthetic, intellectual and narrative richness of science fiction in the Arab world and its diasporas. It accompanies the eponymous exhibition featuring over 20 video artists, visual artists and performers, who renew perspectives, redefine identities and seek to offer new possibilities to reality. Globalization, modernity, ecology, migration, gender and decolonization are just some of the topics of interest in this scene, in which artists use science-fiction or fantasy motifs to challenge certainties and assumptions. In addition to presenting the works exhibited and the artistic approach of each artist, this book is an introduction to the most current research on SF creations and new narratives present in all fields of art and carried by artists of Arab culture. French-, English- and Arabic-speaking researchers and academics, specialists in the social sciences, linguistics, literature, cinema and the visual arts, as well as in classical and contemporary culture, have been invited to write texts that shed light on this strong and little-known trend in contemporary Arab art in France.
