A multidisciplinary examination of the forms taken by withdrawal.What forms does withdrawal—meaning either that which withdraws itself or which is being withdrawn—take in artistic and cultural practices? What movements does it create or follow in specific contexts, and with what theoretical, material, and political consequences? The contributors to this book address these questions in a variety of writing practices, each focusing on specific scenes. Through interviews, artistic and literary texts, visual contributions, and academic texts, On Withdrawal explores various modalities of withdrawal, ranging from a silencing of critical voices to a political and aesthetic strategy of refusal.Contributors: Arnika Ahldag, Sofia Bempeza, Lauren Berlant, Kathrin Busch, Helen Cammock, Knut Ebeling, Sebastián Eduardo Dávila, Mutlu Ergün-Hamaz, Stefanie Graefe, Rebecca Hanna John, Ulrike Jordan, Pinar Ögrenci, Pallavi Paul, Thorsten Schneider, Judith Sieber, Diana Taylor, Deniz Utlu, Marivi Véliz, Nele Wulff, and Akram Zaatari

Archives are not only powerful tools of domination from above: they have also been used from below, as sites of resistance against erasure. Especially in postcolonial, postpartition and postwar contexts, contemporary artists doing memory work often navigate a tension between appropriating the position of the archivist as an emancipatory act and problematizing that very position from a transnational perspective. Rebecca Hanna John sheds light on this understudied aspect of the archival turn in art, showing how Akram Zaatari, Jumana Manna, and Farah Saleh critically engage with archives in order to tell stories of transnational connections, trajectories, and entanglements.
