SpiritualityAperture237In a time of hyperactive communication, unending consumerism, and political confusion, Wolfgang Tillmansguest-edits an issue ofApertureon the subject of spirituality and its connection to solidarity. "People are touched and moved by experiences of genuine solidarity," Tillmans notes. "Solidarity describes a degree of selflessness, or experiences that remind people of values higher than the pure materialistic culture we're in."This issue, featuring contributions by leading artists, scientists, novelists, and philosophers, will look at different ways of considering humanity's longing for spiritual connection-from the shared sense of purpose behind global mass protests, to the collective spirit of the dance floor, to how image-makers have strived to visualize the intangible and the inexplicable. Key features include: a look at the role of spiritualism in the work ofMinor White, Aperture's founding editor; esteemed physicistPeter Galisonon the recent landmark image of a black hole;David Swindells's chronicle of underground rave culture in London;Siddhartha Mitteron images of protests in Hong Kong, Cairo, and Standing Rock; a collaborative project byOlivia LaingandMary Manning;Sean O'TooleonSantu Mofokengand South Africa's spiritual landscapes; plus portfolios bySusan Hiller, Mare Nero, Harit Srikhao, and more. | Spirituality by Aperture, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
