Autour de Mémoire vive

Winter 2003

[In French] Ce numéro propose une série de « petits exercices de mémoire » qui mettent en scène le rapport de l’art à la ville et à son public, le récit historique, l’expérience vécue et l’acte d’échange, d’abord à travers quelques essais sur Mémoire vive – événement orchestré par Dare-Dare de concert avec le Centre d’histoire de Montréal –, ainsi que dans des textes abordant la « topophilie » urbaine, les arts de la rue et la performance.

Crip

Spring Summer 2026

While “handi” (short for the term “handicapé” in French) and “crip” (derived from “cripple,” meaning “disabled”) are diminutive forms of stigmatizing terms, the meaning we ascribe to them is by no means reductive. On the contrary, they carry a political weight that provides those who embrace them with a powerful tool for empowerment, offering disabled artists non-normative ways for articulating the strange temporalities of disabled experience and alternative ways for navigating an ableist art world. In this issue, we are interested precisely in this work of social, political, and cultural transformation, and we focus on the ways in which crip authors and artists address the different challenges they face.
