Twenty-Five Writers Inspired by Videos Produced by the Han Nefkens Foundation over the Past Twenty-Five Years By Han Nefkens, Kyung-sook Shin, Marjorie Evasco, Nazli Ghassemi, Amanda Lee Koe, An Yu, Cristina Morales, Prabda Yoon, Rowan Hisayo Buchanan, Wu Ming-Yi, Carol Bensimon, Faisal Tehrani, Eduardo Ruiz Sosa, Tomoka Shibasaki, Tsotne Tskhvediani, Manuel Forcano, Gaspar Peñaloza, Nguyen Thuy Hang, Inez Tan, Najwan Darwish, Matías Candeira, Norman Erikson Pasaribu, Shalim M Hussain, Chikodili Emelumadu, Kyla Pasha. Many of the artists the Han Nefkens Foundation works with have been inspired by literature, but with this book the Foundation has turned it around. To celebrate the twenty-five years Han Nefkens has been an activist in the art world, the Foundation has invited twenty-five international writers and poets to write a piece inspired by one of the videos the Foundation has produced. Many of these writers had not looked at video art before and some were not familiar with art from cultures other than their own. Yet, all have written intriguing, often unexpected pieces which shows how moving images can spark imagination.
