OBLIVION

Surprisingly the fundamental function of oblivion in the constitution of knowledge of all kinds has hardly been brought to light. This book is built on the results of a game that proposed an exploration of the paths and geographies of oblivion by means of photography with the idea to suggest or identify aspects of Oblivion that may be unspoken or even unspeakable. The following artists and poets participated in this game: Barrett J. Erickson Bela Gamela Catherine Dumaine Dale Houstman Daniel O'Reilly Darren Thomas David Nadeau Doug Campbell Fairouz Eltaweela Ghadah Kamal Irene Plazewska James Sebor Mitchell Pluto Mohsen Elbelasy Nelly Sanchez Pierre Petiot Richard Burke Richard Misiano-Genovese Uly Paya Veronica Cabanillas Samaniego Waleed Fekry Willem den Broeder Yves Maquinay Zazie (Evi Moechel).Poems and texts by the participants in English Spanish and French have been added to photographies.
