Decapitated Economies brings together contributions addressing a wide spectrum of headlessness and its many operational forms, from the invention of the guillotine to the maintenance of the museum repository, from annual shareholder reports to Indigenous sovereignty struggles and from neuroscientific advancements to brain surgery narratives, as well as the housing crisis, ocean pollution, settlement and cerealization, wheat banks, political murder, human extinction and much more.

With contributions by D.T. Cochrane, Amanda DeLisio, Armin Linke, Nashin Mahtani, Jeff Monaghan, Skye Moret, Alfred Russel Wallace and many, many others. Design in collaboration with Katharina Tauer.

Made possible by Schering Stiftung

intercalations: paginated exhibition

This exhibition series in paperback format was developed in collaboration with Anna-Sophie Springer and Etienne Turpin for the SYNAPSE curators' network. The series provokes questions about the validity of seeming categorical binaries such as culture and nature, human and non-human, subject and object, book and exhibition.
