The Art & Ecology research group at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts is happy to invite you to the next session of the Art & Ecology Reading Group.
The Reading Group gathers monthly at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp. Each meeting, we will read and discuss relevant and urgent selected articles within the field of enquiry of the Art & Ecology research group. The group welcomes everyone - researchers, staff, students, alumni or otherwise - who wishes to participate.
Wednesday 15 October 2025, 17:00-19:00
We'll discuss two chapters from the publication Theory of Water - Nishnaabe Maps to the Times Ahead (2025) by Leanne Betasamosake Simpson: chapter 4 ('Sintering') and chapter 11 ('Bullfrogs, Cattails and Water Lilies'). The book is published by Haymarket Books (Chicago, IL), a nonprofit publisher which aims to publish books that contribute to struggles for social and economic justice ("We strive to make our books a vibrant and organic part of social movements and the education and development of a critical, engaged, and internationalist Left").
Warm regards,
Eva-Fiore Kovacovsky, Sina Hensel and Roel Arkesteijn
