61: Currencies of Hospitality
Guest edited by Sylvie Fortin

PUBLIC is an interdisciplinary journal conceived as a hybrid 
intellectual and creative forum that investigates how theoretical and 
critical issues intersect with art and the public sphere. We are pleased 
to announce the immediate availability of /PUBLIC: 61 Currencies of 
Hospitality/, guest edited by Sylvie Fortin, featuring a cover by Dawit 
L. Petros and contributions from Irina Aristakhova, Lisa Baldissera, 
Denise Ferreira Da Silva, Sylvie Fortin, Tamar Guimarâes, Charlie 
Hailey, Mark Jeffery, Kelly Kaczynski, Karen Meyer, Cynthia Nicol, 
Behzad Khosravi Noori, Justin Langlois, Kelly Lloyd, Dawit L. Petros, 
Megan Rooney, Claudia Ruitenberg, Diego Semerene, Felipe Steinberg, 
Andrew Stooke, Shannon Stratton, Sara Swain, Bojana Videkanić.

Hospitality is usually considered a philosophical concept, an ethical 
concern with juridical implications, a sociopolitical practice … or an 
industry. This issue shifts the focus to speculate on many of its other 
(often stealth) manifestations. It mobilizes hospitality—as concept, 
metaphor, performance, and dissidence—to render its pluripotent agency. 
The presence of hospitality can be detected in practices of walking, 
gathering, swinging, eating, drinking, playing, partying, and loving. 
This issue of /PUBLIC/ is also a critical curatorial endeavour that 
weaves together artists’ projects, fiction, scholarly research, and 
other indefinable forms to explore some of the unexpected valences of 
hospitality in modern and contemporary art, cinema, animation, and 
exhibition making; in architecture, infrastructure, land use, and 
practices of cohabitation; in kinship and care; and in justice, 
pedagogy, and reparation.
