Spring / Summer 2006

[In French] Signe d’authenticité, la signature dit l’origine de l’œuvre. Depuis toujours elle a permis à l’artiste de revendiquer sa singularité et a été preuve et repère pour la fondation du jugement esthétique. Ce dossier fait appel à des réflexions sur les multiples façons d'identifier ou de signer l'œuvre ou le processus artistique, ce que l'on pourrait nommer les formes nouvelles de signatures, incluant le portfolio de Carl Trahan.

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.
