QUEER.ARCHIVE.WORK #1 / Available at www.draw-down.com / An urgent, messy-looking, and future-facing publication, QUEER.ARCHIVE.WORK #1 serves as a “loose assembling” of #queer methodologies. Comprised of a collection of print-on-demand and Risograph-printed zines and prints, the works in this issue share a particular view of network culture, failure, and refutation. Intended as a signal sent out into muddy waters, QUEER.ARCHIVE.WORK #1 is the start of a speculative practice emerging from (and moving towards) the undercommons—a collective place for subversive artists and writers who reject normative narratives. This inaugural issue features new work by Jack Halberstam, Nora N. Khan, American Artist, #SomnathBhatt #NicoleKillian #NatePyper shawné michaelain holloway, Unity Press, Be Oakley, Sal Randolph, Porpentine Charity Heartscape, and Demian DinéYazhi´. Nothing in Q.A.W. #1 is bound. No staples or glue. The nine parts of the publication use folding, nesting, and enveloping as techniques of association. Sheets may be pulled out and rearranged, encouraging new juxtapositions and relationships each time it’s read.

WINDOW 37: SOMNATH BHATT

WINNIPEG’S ONLY 24 HOUR ARTIST-RUN CENTRE PRESENTS SOMNATH BHATT Location: Artspace Building, corner of Bannatyne @ Arthur [sidewalk level] window is pleased to present our thirty-seventh installation, Undo (2018), by Somnath Bhatt, on view until May 10, 2018. ~~ A one-word manifesto. A verb, 'undo' is both describing an action, state, or occurrence, and also redeeming it - a constant negotiation. ~~

About the artist: Somnath Bhatt is a designer and artist. He was born and raised in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. His interests are broad; they range from multimedia and technology, to multilingual typography and traditional crafts. He likes exploring metaphors and tapping into the dynamism of liminal, peripheral, and intersectional spaces in art and design. Seeking the new in the old, and the old in the new is his favorite form of making. Bhatt's work has been shown at ICA, London, Institute of New Connotative Action, Seattle WA, Lewisham Art House, UK, Wrong Biennale Oslo Norway, Welcome To Junior High in West Hollywood, CA, RISD Museum in Providence, RI,   the Yale Odd & Ends Book Fair, and Chinatown Soup, NYC. The Installation will be accompanied by an interview with the artist, to be published on window's Tumblr in the coming weeks.
