Through critical and aesthetic interventions that foreground the archive’s negotiated character, archival art destabilises conventional ways of organising, preserving, and representing memory. In the Latin American context, these interventions engage collections shaped by histories of colonial extraction, displacement, and uneven regimes of inscription, where violence and silence remain structurally embedded. This volume brings together reflections and creative responses from the first Activation Lab, an experimental research and creation platform for Latin American artists working with archival materials.

Visual material from Lea Hopp’s video work "Rengashis’ Room" enters into dialogue with an essay by Sulgi Lie on artistic strategies of text-image juxtaposition and their theoretical implications, while a conversation between Hopp and Carol O’Sullivan sheds light on the manifold functions fulfilled by subtitles throughout their history.

Die versammelten Texte stehen im Dialog mit dem Wandel der literarischen Szene Brasiliens, in der historisch marginalisierte Stimmen einen zentralen Platz im kulturellen Schaffen des Landes einnehmen — eine Neudefinition der brasilianischen Literatur und Erweiterung ihrer Ausdrucksmöglichkeiten.

The illegible exposes, albeit in the negative, the promise of writing to communicate, and makes reading as an aesthetic and semiotic practice accessible to reflection in a particular way. Just as reading can imply a wide range of processes, illegibility unfolds as a spectrum of failed or only partially successful decoding operations. The experience of illegibility as an unfulfilled expectation includes, for example, the fundamental unreadability of asemic graphisms, the potentially defeasible illegibility of coded texts, texts in unlearned sign systems or defaced writing, and the incomprehensibility of readable texts. By engaging with the fringes and margins of reading, the essays assembled in this volume address the practice not only as an automatic process of deciphering signs, of searching for and assigning meaning – they specifically highlight those moments when reading becomes self-referential in sensory perception, performative, experimental, transgressive or political. Reading is investigated as an embodied interaction with textual artefacts, as a basis for collective performance or as a practice of attention, and as the privileged and exclusionary mode of Western epistemology. It is addressed in its intimate relationship with writing, and questioned as a metaphor for understanding and interpreting the world.
