Endnotes. On Reading Anarchy is an exhibition, publication, and event project that departs from the legacy of the Free Thought Library (BLR: Вольная Думка), a self-organized anarchist space in Minsk, which ceased to exist after the crackdown on the social uprising of 2020 in Belarus. Taking the collection of publications and zines as a starting point, the project suggests various ways of reading anarchy through a selection of materials comprised of radical publishing, fanzines, and miscellaneous ephemera, sourced from the excel file of the library collection and found elsewhere—private collections, infoshops, and anarchist archives. These fragments – gathered, performed, displaced, and reassembled by the invited artists and writers – linger as notes and endnotes of social struggle, waiting to be read again, touched again, and activated in another time.
