In the age of "fake news" and "alternative facts," artists take on truth and fiction
"Fake news" and "alternative facts" have recently entered the public lexicon, speaking to a renewed confusion over concepts of truth and reality. But these concerns have long been addressed in the field of documentary art, well before the recent attention in politics and media related to facts, truth, reality and fiction. Artists who work with archival materials or scrutinize their own subjective position while making documentary work, for example, have long had to reckon with the boundaries between truth and fiction.
When Fact Is Fiction collects contributions from and about artists who explore the boundaries between fact and fiction by playing with the "documentary." Looking at how artists deploy concepts such as truth, reality, fiction and post-truth, this volume explores how the fine lines between fact and fiction can be used to reimagine versions of the present and the future."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Het spanningsveld tussen feit en fictie wordt al veel langer onderzocht en bevraagd binnen het gebied van de documentaire kunst. When Fact Is Fiction verzamelt diverse bijdragen van en over kunstenaars die de grenzen tussen feit en fictie verkennen door met het 'documentaire' te spelen. Het boek biedt een brede achtergrond met betrekking tot documentaire kunstpraktijken, zoals het werken met archiefmateriaal in de kunst of het onderzoeken van het eigen subjectieve vertrekpunt bij het maken van nieuw werk. Dit boek observeert hoe kunstenaars de dunne lijn tussen feit en fictie inzetten als een instrument om versies van de toekomst te verbeelden. When Fact Is Fiction laat zien hoe het speelveld tussen feit en fictie en de rekbaarheid van begrippen als waarheid en realiteit kunnen worden ingezet om impact te hebben in de wereld van vandaag.

Politics and media are constantly dealing with the shifting definitions of facts, truth, reality, and fiction. Yet this is something the field of documentary art has been addressing for much longer. The contributions in this volume are from and about artists who explore the boundaries between fact and fiction by playing with the notion of the ?documentary? The book draws from a wide range of documentary art practices, such as working with archival materials or scrutinising one?s own subjective stance as an artist. It observes how artists deploy the fine line between fact and fiction as a means to imagine versions of the future, and how it can still have an impact in the world of today.
