Accompanying the exhibition Glot at The Hessel Museum of Art, Bard College (April–May 2024), this reader features original interviews with the exhibition’s participating artists: Shahrzad Changalvaee, JJJJJerome Ellis, Nour Mobarak, and Anri Sala. Glot, titled after the Greek-origin suffix meaning “to have a tongue,” is a project about speech and its limits. In these long-form interviews with curator and editor Sophie Rose, the four artists reflect on the elements of vocal expression in their works that exceed linguistic construction. Through these discussions, Changalvaee, Ellis, Mobarak, and Sala suggest a politics of speech beyond clear articulation: a politics residing in the material of voice itself, which both carries and disturbs the speaker’s intention.
