THE STORY, IN BRIEF

In an October 2025 contribution to C&, Maktaba Room described its month-long reading space at Düsseldorf’s ThisThat Gallery in August 2025, without specifying exact dates. Initiated by Cate Lartey and Donja Nasseri, the project brought together art, design and printed matter by African, Asian and diasporic authors. Its selections included Grace Wales Bonner’s MoMA publication and Project a Black Planet, treating books as resources for creative exchange rather than fixed displays.
