"You have to remember yourself in order for people to remember you." — Zanele Muholi

In this excerpt from Art Basel Conversations in Paris, visual activist Zanele Muholi spoke with filmmaker and curator Pascale Obolo about the camera as a means of claiming a place in history. Bringing together two practices shaped by archives and marginalized narratives, they consider how images can resist erasure and who gets to be remembered.

"It is very important also for artists to be paid." — Savvy Contemporary

Honored this year in the Museums and Institutions category of the #ArtBaselAwards, SAVVY Contemporary is a Berlin based artistic organisation, discursive platform, place for good talks, foods and drinks – a space for conviviality and cultural plurilog. As an organism in perpetual becoming since 2009, SAVVY situates itself at the threshold of the West and the non-West to understand their conceptualisations, ethical systems, achievements, and ruins. It develops tools, proposes perspectives and nourishes practices towards imagining a world inhabited together. SAVVY Contemporary composes life-worlds through its commitments to exhibition-making, research, sonic and visual cultures, embodied knowledges, and other heritages of creativity.

Ahead of Zero 10's second edition at #ArtBaselMiamiBeach, get to know the initiative's lead curator Karen Archey.

Featuring 19 projects by 21 galleries and platforms, this year's presentation is titled 'Generation'.

Speaking about the exhibiton's title, Archey said 'It points towards a productive double meaning: to 'generation' as the computational process through which images, forms, and experiences are produced, and to a new generation of artists reckoning with the systems and imaginaries of the digital age."
