Abstract
This chapter discusses the international proliferation of networks and curatorial projects centered on care, to tease out some common threads between artists working in different countries, nation states and communities. Transglobal connection, as demonstrated in Suzuki’s poetic piece, is a feature of the recent proliferation of art networks and curatorial projects that foreground care as an urgent and necessary platform from which to understand the current late-capitalist, pandemic moment, and potentially craft a more hopeful future. The reliance by neoliberalist economies on unseen labour and care work is foregrounded in the current moment and is being taken up by a number of artists as both medium and critique. Collaborative communities of care and their creative potential are proving vital as effective and necessary platforms for sustaining our humanity and rethinking more ethical futures. Earlier forms of collective care were a feature of Relational Aesthetics in the 1990s.
