Produced on the occasion of Ana Gallardo’s exhibition at Museo CA2M in Móstoles, Here Trembled a Delirium brings the artist’s work into dialogue with a collective reflection by a number of writers and activists. At the heart of the debate is a subject that, for a variety of historical reasons, has often been overlooked: the violence inflicted on women, territories and forms of knowledge.
The publication considers the scars left by technologies of death deployed as part of a colonial and patriarchal system of governance, as well as ways of resisting and setting limits on capitalism’s drive to treat life as a resource from which profit and privilege can be extracted for the benefit of a few. Co-published with Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo.
