Solidarity Must Be Defended
Eszter Szakács and Naeem Mohaiemen

 

This anthology weaves together gestures and alignments of transnational solidarity within the visual arts during the Cold War era. The starting point for the anthology was the Budapest premiere of Naeem Mohaiemen's film Two Meetings and a Funeral (2017), curated by Eszter Szakács. The book's title is an homage to Michel Foucault's Society Must Be Defended (1976). Is every action capable of building solidarity, or can it become counterproductive when carried out with challenging allies, ambiguous manifestos, and accelerated timelines?
