Note
Published on the occasion of the exhibition by Hito Steyerl, Thomas Keenan, Paulo Tavares, and Eyal Weizman, curated by Anselm Franke at Portikus, Frankfurt am Main, Feb. 4-May 6, 2012.
"This book was commissioned to instigate, rather than represent, an exhibition. In this curatorial experiment, Thomas Keenan and Eyal Weizman were asked to produce a book and Hito Steyerl was asked to respond to their text by creating a series of works. This process constructed a form of research within the margins of science, aesthetics, and law--an entangled set of circumstances from which we can examine the fields anew"--P. [2] of cover.
