When Fact Is Fiction: Documentary Art in the Post-Truth Era
**New edition with black and white cover design
Politics and media are constantly dealing with the shifting definitions of facts, truth, reality, and fiction. Yet this is something the field of documentary art has been addressing for much longer. The contributions in this volume are from and about artists who explore the boundaries between fact and fiction by playing with the notion of the ādocumentaryā. The book draws from a wide range of documentary art practices, such as working with archival materials or scrutinising oneās own subjective stance as an artist. It observes how artists deploy the fine line between fact and fiction as a means to imagine versions of the future, and how it can still have an impact in the world of today.
224 pages, 14 x 21 cm, paperback, Valiz (Amsterdam).
