Through the Biennale platform, independent curators and mediators have created “infra-projects” that respond to or align with Dube’s larger thematic framework: “Edible Archives” curated by Anumitra Ghosh Dastidar and Prima Kurien, “Sister Library” by Aqui Thami, “Srinagar Biennale” by Veer Munshi, and a project by Durgabai Vyam + Subhash Vyam. – 《高知双年展》第四版“非异化生活的可能性”展示了印度西南海岸高知堡、马丹克雷和厄纳库拉姆的100多个遗产、公共空间和画廊项目。馆长Anita Dube邀请了来自30多个国家的94名从业者，形成了一个王朝。在一个彻底开放的环境中，MIC提供了一套分享、倾听甚至挑战空间的社会背景和艺术方法。

The Long March: Marking 40 Years of Reform and Development …

The year 2018 marked 40 years of reform and development in China. However, a gloomy reality has overshadowed the democratic aspirations that many within and outside of the country had associated with the implementation of a market economy. Initially reform and opening up served as an engine to transform China from an impoverished state to a formidable economic power. Yet the process of de-politicization following the student movement in 1989 set the ball rolling on a singular economic track. In 2018, mirroring the rise of right-wing strongmen across the world, everyday life and intellectual discussion have been increasingly subject to tightened surveillance and controls as President Xi consolidates his own powerbase. – 2018年是中国改革开放40年的一年。然而，令人沮丧的现实掩盖了国内外许多人与实行市场经济有关的民主愿望。最初，改革开放是中国从一个贫穷国家转变为一个强大经济力量的引擎。然而，1989年学生运动之后的去政治化进程使经济走上了一条奇特的轨道。2018，反映了右翼强人在世界各地的崛起，日常生活和知识分子的讨论越来越受到严密的监视和控制，因为席总统巩固了自己的权力基础。

What Goes On in the Darkness at Sweden’s Northernmost Bien …

‘I am the owner of this mountain,’ says a man at the entrance to a network of underground tunnels in Norrbotten, the northernmost county of Sweden. The tunnels were built during the Cold War to protect the region’s natural riches from Soviet forces – iron ore chief among them. The attack never came, the site was decommissioned and the current owner uses the dank, freezing tunnels to farm mushrooms, mine bitcoin and provide a temporary environment for art. Presently, they house Raqs Media Collective’s installation The Blood of Stars (2017), part of the Luleå Biennial, ‘Tidal Ground’. Wandering the subterranean passages with a flashlight, I find a vitrine containing a meteor that a guide tells me is older than Earth. Like the resources that the tunnels were built to defend, it is also made of iron. – “我是这座山的主人，”瑞典最北部的郡诺尔博滕（Norrbotten）地下隧道网络入口处的一名男子说。这些隧道是在冷战期间修建的，目的是保护该地区的自然财富免受苏联军队的侵袭，其中包括铁矿石。袭击从未发生，现场已经退役，现在的主人使用潮湿，冻结的隧道来种植蘑菇，开采比特币，并为艺术提供一个临时环境。目前，他们收藏了Raqs媒体集体的设施“星之血”（2017），这是Lule双年展“潮汐地”的一部分。我拿着手电筒在地下通道中漫步，发现一个玻璃瓶里装着一颗流星，一位导游告诉我它比地球还古老。就像隧道用来防御的资源一样，它也由铁制成。
