About the book

Structured around 4 conversations, 'Fucking Good Art 31' takes as its starting point the 1938 book 'Homo Ludens', a study of the play-element in culture by Johan Huizinga. The artists spoke with the following people as part of their research into the importance of play in different fields: Tijs Goldschmidt, Dutch writer and evolutionary biologist, on why and how animals play; Joris Luyendijk, Dutch journalist who writes for the BBC's experimental Banking Blog, which looks at the world of finance from an anthropological perspective; Evelyne Reeves, director of Le Bureau des Temps in Rennes, an agency that devises improvements in the way the city structures its time; and Zoë Gray about her ideas for the biennale in Rennes.
