The pleasures we choose is published on the occasion of the Pavilion of Finland at the 60th International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia. The publication acts as a guide for the exhibition and is a support structure for access and communication on different registers. Intended as a handbook, the book extends beyond the pavilion’s walls to make the core practices, processes, and politics of the project(s) visible through various contributions. In dialogue with the artworks of Pia Lindman, Vidha Saumya and Jenni-Juulia Wallinheimo-Heimonen, the diverse contributions speak to matters of the body, toxicity, access, architectures of violence, disability justice, interdependency, collectivity, human and planetary health, healing, agency, embodiment as power, rest as resistance, and the radical act of choosing pleasure.weiterlesen
