  • About

    Raiders of the lost Arc-hive Symposium reading list.

    Through the gathering of texts recommended by those in contact with archival practices, we aim to provide a reading list which acts as a means for navigating and contextualising artists and works produced ​in or close to this field.

    It is our interest to explore archival practices in a broad sense, not just limiting to archives if not opening up to futher ideas, relationhips and methods that relate to archival practices.

    Raiders of the lost Arc-hive Symposium took place in GENERATORprojects, Dundee, from Friday 6th May to Sunday 8th May 2016.
