Since 2020, Fondation H has been developing and producing publications linked to its exhibitions and programmes. These publications contribute to the role of Fondation H in writing the history of contemporary art in Madagascar, across the Indian Ocean, and on the African continent. They serve to preserve and anchor in time exhibitions that, in a few decades, may feel more distant. Working in collaboration with both local and international graphic designers, Fondation H strives to translate what is deployed within its spaces into volumes that the public can then take home.
For each project, Fondation H invites both international and local authors to bring to the content a distinct perspective, informed by their professional and personal experiences. To date, exhibition curators, academics, authors, historians, and directors of institutions have been invited to contribute to our projects. In addition to the texts, Fondation H’s editorial projects systematically feature exhibition views and artwork details. This editorial approach reflects the Foundation’s commitment to archiving and anchoring its actions for the long term—an essential part of its mission to play an active role in the dissemination of artistic knowledge related to Africa, the Indian Ocean and its diaspora.
Initially produced as booklets—echoing the scale of Fondation H’s exhibition spaces newly inaugurated in 2023—the format of the editions is evolving. For its exhibitions in Antananarivo, Fondation H now produces full exhibition catalogues, while the booklet format is maintained for exhibitions linked to the Mihaza programme in the Parisian space of Fondation H.
