{"product_id":"9781032725017","title":"Permacultures of Care : Imagining New Narratives by Luisa Santos","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e PRE-ORDER NOW - Published: 01\/04\/2026 \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book reimagines what art institutions might become through the lens of three permaculture design principles-observe and interact, obtain a yield, and use and value diversity.   Structured in three parts, the book moves between theory, case studies, and in-depth conversations with artists, curators, and collectives who are already reshaping institutional practices from within. Part 1, Observe and interact: transecting current multiple crises in art institutions, examines the limitations of European funding frameworks and their effects on institutional behaviour. Part 2, Obtain a yield: networks of relationships, resources, and practices, looks at how institutions might cultivate forms of reciprocity and resilience that extend beyond economic value. Part 3, Use and value diversity: imagi(ni)ng alternative narratives and futures, embraces diversity and multiplicity as conditions for institutional renewal.   Rather than providing conclusions, this book invites readers to imagine and co-create the art institutions of the future-fluid, diverse, and deeply intertwined with the ecosystems in which they exist. It will appeal to scholars and upper-level students of cultural studies, social change, cultural management and policy, gender studies, race and racism, and ecology and environmental studies. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56368381755765,"sku":"9781032725017","price":155.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781032725017.jpg?v=1774541584","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781032725017","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
