P L S – The magazine of the Palais de Tokyo #39

Issue 39 of the Palais de Tokyo magazine explores group dynamics that foster the experience and learning of joy. Through festive, creative, and social endeavours, this issue highlights the role of sociocultural, educational, and collective practices in art history. It particularly invites reflection on the notion of participation in creation. Each contribution encourages us to recognise the ever-expanding scope of collective joy – a joy rooted in our capacity to affect and be affected, to act and be transformed, and to actively partake in an expansion of collective power that enables new practices and new worlds to emerge.
