SPF 666: Gótico Provençal
SPF 666: Gótico Provençal looks at the Tropical Gothic genre through the lens of Provence’s own dark mythologies. As the birthplace of Nostradamus and a key node in colonial history, Provence can be located halfway between the Norse origins of the Gothic and its late twentieth century tropical reinvention.
SPF 666: Gótico Provençal echoes the transgressive spirit of the Tropical Gothic as a position from which to explore haunting specters such as environmental doom, the ghosts of colonialism, and magical thinking, and the cultural responses to them. With essays and visual contributions from over twenty artists and writers, the book is the first to propose a global exploration of the Tropical Gothic genre in contemporary culture, from Manilla to Bogota via Arles.
With contributions from Diana Campbell, Julien Creuzet, Justin D. Edwards, Gabriel Eljaiek-Rodríguez, Éricka Flórez, Krist Gruijthuijsen, Sandra Guardini Vasconcelos, Inti Guerrero, François Halard, Sky Hopinka, Gary Indiana, Karen Lamassonne, Pablo León de la Barra , Pierre-Alexandre Mateos and Charles Teyssou, Aram Moshayedi, Bernardo Mosqueira, Jill Mulleady, Vassilis Oikonomopoulos, Precious Okoyomon, María Isabel Rueda, and Emiliano Valdés. Edited by Simon Castets and Fabian Gröning.
