DOUBLE BOOK LAUNCH: with Re’al Christian (As For Protocols) and Michael Nardone (Convivialities), in partnership with Vera List Centre for Art and Politics
October 3, 2025 - October 3, 2025Join us at Critical Distance on Friday, October 3, 6:30 – 8 pm for the Toronto launch of two new books in conversation: As for Protocols (Vera List Center for Art and Politics/Amherst College Press, 2025) and Convivialities (Talonbooks, 2025).
New York-based writer, editor, and curator Re’al Christian, co-editor of As for Protocols, will be joined by Montréal-based writer and editor Michael Nardone, editor of Convivialities, for a conversation on the editorial/curatorial practices and perspectives at the core of their two volumes.
Both books emerge out of sustained engagements with writers and artists; together, Christian and Nardone will consider how the array of artists and writers involved in their editions articulate the contemporary conditions, relational affinities, and protocols of making.
Space is limited, please RSVP here.
