What can be said for the radical aesthetics and the performativity, whether visual or gestural, that have become central to the many progressive protests in recent years? The Protest and The Recuperation ponders that question with a survey of artistic perspectives on, and responses to, global protests that have taken place during the past decade from the Arab Spring through Covid-19, as well as the recuperative strategies of resistance.

Angela Su: Melencolia is published in conjunction with the artist's eponymously titled first solo exhibition in the Western Hemisphere. The richly illustrated book provides an overview of the artist's work since 2013 which includes installations, speculative docufiction videos, and drawings and hair embroideries of composite cyborgian bodies. The title is a tribute to Albrecht Dürer's engraving "Melencolia I" (1514). In medieval philosophy, melancholy is associated with insanity, and late in the Renaissance it was also linked to creative genius. This print is a divining rod for understanding Su's varied practice. Weaving a spiritual dimension in works that veer into strange and uncomfortable spheres, she reenvisions interlocking symbolisms and expands into the mediums and realms drawn from the modern and contemporary archive.

Shifting Shorelines, published in conjunction with an eponymous exhibition, brings together historical and contemporary art, material culture, and environmental science to engage in an interdisciplinary critical dialogue. Through visual, ecological, and material evidence the authors demonstrate the various cycles of exploitation, damage, and reclamation. In so doing, the publication offers a counter reading of the received art historical narratives about the "scenic Hudson" - narratives overwhelmingly grounded on the work of white male artists - and aims for a rich and complex understanding of the legacy, lives, and livelihoods along the river informed by the voices and experiences of a broad range of creators. By focusing deeply on a specific place, this richly illustrated collection of essays offers a story of human and more-than-human history that reverberated across the country on other industrialized rivers such as the Mississippi, Ohio, and Columbia.
