Seismography of Struggles

The exhibition "Seismography of Struggles" presented at MACBA in Barcelona aims to offer non-Eurocentric perspectives on history through a collection, in digital format, of critical and cultural periodicals.

The exhibition “Seismography of Struggles” offers non-Eurocentric perspectives on history and allows for a reconsideration of the intellectual, artistic and political dynamics that took place at the heart of colonial empires. “Seismography of Struggles” is the result of a research project that brings together, in a digital format, nearly eight hundred non-European critical and cultural periodicals, including those originating from the African, Indian, Caribbean, Asian and South American diasporas that were produced in the wake of the revolutionary movements from the end of the eighteenth century up to the watershed year of 1989, with the fall of the Berlin Wall. These publications voice the critical resistance of peoples who have endured colonialism, slavery, apartheid and genocide. Also included are journals from other peoples who have experienced violent dictatorships, as well as brutal political and cultural upheavals.
