Crip Art Resources

<p>The images that we see around us everyday limit the horizon of our imagination and our ability to think up things beyond it. That concept is what Frederic Jameson calls the political unconscious. <em>Crip Magazine</em> aims to expand these limitations on the world of imagination. This issue includes contributions about crip pop culture, art and radical social movements, deals with pain, or opens up a transformative perspective on body issues and bodily relations. It is a collection of various kinds of crip materials (<em>Crip Art Resources</em>). We asked artists to work on historical artifacts and graphic materials (for instance magazine covers from <em>Der Krüppel</em>, <em>Neues aus Krankheit</em>, <em>Krüppelzeitung</em>, and <em>Hoboreview</em>). The cover of this issue includes a quote from explosive, an Austrian youth magazine from the 1980s.</p> <p>There is a conversation with Petra Fuchs about the history of two women pioneers in the struggle to abolish segregated schools. To sum it up: segregated schooling finally needs to be abolished! For real. Also: hacked commercials / advertisements, crip reading tests, contributions on disability culture as counter-culture. Images with the perspective on agency. Texts on non-normative temporalities, being in.Tact, crip queer desire, crip time as an explosion. We’ll be done at 1:30. Time should stay here with me. Time doesn’t have to go away. Now is the time and crip is the future…</p>
