ZOO INDEX READER (VOLUME 1) by Terezie Štindlová edited by Jacob Lindgren

130 x 220mm, 332 pages, full colour printing, perfect bound, softcover, 2024

Zoo Index Reader examines the relevance of zoos and how they shape our gaze towards nonhuman animals, and by extension, ourselves and one another. Through a mixture of visual research and written contributions on the history of menageries, the confinement and privatization of land, zoo architecture, pets, the “naturalization” of animals, and the roles of zoos and animals in the history of cinema, this first volume asks: Do we need zoos? What does a meaningful coexistence with animals look like? Why have we decided to give a balloon to an elephant?

With texts by Jacob Lindgren, Animals as Objects, Institute for Postnatural Studies, Angelo Renna & Andrea Branzi, Richard Weller, Eliot Haworth, David Hancocks, A+E Collective, Chanelle Adams, Suzanne van der Lingen, John Berger, Laurel Schwulst, Terezie Štindlová.
