Hans Ulrich Obrist met the Martinique-born philosopher, poet, and public intellectual Édouard Glissant in 1999; the encounter influenced the direction of Obrist's work for years to come. As one of today's most prolific producers of culture, Obrist has left an indelible mark-and Glissant through him. In 2021, Obrist edited, reworked, and arranged their conversations in their entirety for the first time and for a broad public audience. THE ARCHIPELAGO CONVERSATIONS is the result-enlightening us, as only Glissant can, as to how we might form an interdependent Earth in the 21st Century. It is a ready-to-hand tool, for building new politics, societies, and institutions-to be carried and shared.
