"Afterall" is a journal of art, context, and inquiry that offers
in-depth consideration of the work of contemporary artists from
around the world, along with essays that set the work in a broader
context. Articles on art history and critical theory applied to art
round out each volume. "Afterall" is written by scholars - but with
an eye toward the general reader who is interested in the situation
of art and artists in our world. Issue 25 is built around
examinations of ways of looking and commemorating. The essays on
artists in this issue address the photography of Zoe Leonard, the
objects and videos of Judith Hopf, the films of Yugoslavian Black
Wave director Zelimir Zilnik, and the work of Lebanese artist Rabih
Mroue, while broader pieces look at the aesthetic dimensions of
protest and commemoration under the Argentine dictatorship, the
success of 'project exhibitions' in the 1990s, and the sculptural
poetry of Karl Homqvist.

world and beyond. Featured artists include Andrea Zittel, Jef Geys,

activate the audience in contemporary art, Pablo Lafuente
dissecting the role of the object in participatory practices, an
exploration of Emily Wardill's elusive films of objects and
ossified social relations, a look at the photographic and
sculptural practice of Jean-Luc Moulene, and discussions of the
work of 1970s Chicago collective "AfriCOBRA" and the return of
modernism in the work of Carol Bove, Mathias Poledna, and others.

that artists have of approaching the economy as opposed to the
market. Essays include examinations of Eugenio Dittborn's
