N° 68 — Summer 2024

Diptyk #68

Arabfuturism, on the Edges of the Hyperreal

A flying Renault 12, a purple djellaba, cities of the future rising from the desert. Diptyk #68 devotes its feature to Arabfuturism, the science fiction that seizes the codes of the future to write counter-narratives from the Global South. This summer 2024 issue also stops in Venice, Dakar and Rabat. It features reports, analyses, interviews and portfolios on contemporary art in Morocco, Africa and around the world.
