ROSC: Fiction of the Contemporary is a publication and performance by year one MA in Art and Research Collaboration researchers in response to the ROSC archives.
Through the medium of the archive the publication documents the planning and research process for a ROSC retrospective exhibition in 1992 that never reached fruition but failed in the planning process due to disagreements and a shifting external landscape.
The publication encompasses internal communications, research material and wider trends in contemporary art of the time; examining the tensions and contradictions in defining, and exhibiting, the contemporary.
The performance included readings and interpretations of archival texts. 
The participating ARC researchers are: Sophie Behal, Petra Berntsson, Isadora Epstein, Yvanna Greene, Jung-A Han, Yvonne Higgins, Eoghan McIntyre, Maeve Lynch, Rosie O’Reilly, Sarah O’Toole, Julia Ptak, Benjamin Stafford.
