Funny Weather: Art in an Emergency by Olivia Laing
May 12, 2020
Olivia Laing's highly anticipated new collection of essays Funny Weather is in store now and we're ELEATED!
In the book, Laing explores the role of art in this timultous 21st century!
In this age of Climate Breakdown, Trump, Brexit, Surveillance, Violence, Mass Extinction, and Pandemic, crises override crises constantly. These constant crises beget anxiety and parallesis. Laing brilliantly makes the case for why art matters more than ever, as a force of both resistance and repair.
She writes about so many wonderful thinkers and writers!
You may remember Laing from her wonderful books The Lonely City and Crudo, the former of which is also very relivant during this moment of isolation and physical distancing.
Have I mentioned recently that our online store is open 24/7 and we're shipping accross Canada and delivering by bike accross great swaths of Montreal?
Stay Caring,
Bonne lecture!
