Her latest book, Flipside: The Inadvertent Archive, pays close attention to the backstage, invisible labour of institution-building and curatorial practice. It investigates a 50-year document archive of the Cape’s oldest non-profit arts association (AVA) and brings to life these previously unexplored and uncatalogued stacksProudly facilitated by the Centre for Humanities Research (CHR) at the University of the Western Cape and supported by the NIHSS.For more information, please visit: www.iwalewabooks.com/product-page/kim-gurney-flipside ...

Maurits van Bever Donker’s Texturing Difference “Black Consciousness Philosophy” and the “Script of Man”, was published with Polity Press in December 2024.This book situates the nuanced intervention of the Black Consciousness Movement in South Africa within the international conjuncture of anti-colonial thought and decolonization. It argues that the Black Consciousness Movement, in addition to its urgent political focus, should also be read as a philosophical intervention on the problem of Man that haunts the idea of race. As Steve Biko once famously said, apartheid will end; the real question is what comes after apartheid.For more information: www.chrflagship.uwc.ac.za/texturing-difference-black-consciousness-philosophyand-the-script-of-ma... ...
