The following list of artists, art critics, writers, poets, philosophers, sociologists, playwrights, musicians and activists associated with each artist group represented by a manifesto in this book is not exhaustive. In most cases, we have just listed the founding or most prominent members, particularly in cases where the group contains more than fifteen individuals. Some of those listed here have since left their respective groups, but it is hoped that the list will nevertheless help readers create a general picture of the nature of the protagonists associated with each manifesto. Wherever possible, life dates have been given for each member. Where we have been unable to track these dates down, or living artists have chosen not to have their birth date included, we have written ‘n.d.’ for ‘no date’.
Members of the Artists’ Front of Thailand (M57), Taring Padi (M93), Frente 3 de Fevereiro (M94) and Abounaddara (M98) have not been listed here because these groups work under their collective name only. For the polymorphous giant Slovenian cooperative NSK (M81) – which comprises the industrial pop band Laibach, the painting collective IRWIN, the graphic design team New Collectivism, the underground theatre group Scipion Nasice Sisters Theatre, as well as various departments of philosophy, film and architecture – only the members of IRWIN are listed here, in relation to their own manifesto, ‘The Ear behind the Painting’ (M90).
