Issue No. 7, April 2015 - Topic of Issue: Art and Politics: Agency, Autonomy, Emancipation
No. 7 (2015)After the end of Soviet hegemony and the fall of socialist regimes in Central and Southeast Europe, the consideration of the relationship between art and politics seems urgent. The experience of more than two decades of political and structural changes toward the development of institutions of global capital also contributes to this urgency. The debate over the (political) nature of art becomes necessary, taking into account that this question has been superseded by a marketplace wherein all designations and forms of Art are available. It shows (itself) to be the best vehicle for manipulation and instrumentalization towards the current doxa that ‘everything is possible’. Moreover, the issue of the political aspect of art has been complicated by the dominant intellectual opinion and denunciations that all forms of utopian and social dimensions of art, as in the case of revolutionary and emancipatory perspectives of the avant-gardes, are responsible for the horrors of totalitarianism and terrorism. The aim of this issue therefore is to address the question of how to constitute and affirm an active Art today without slipping into essentialism.

Issue No. 5, April 2014 - Topic of Issue: New Materialism and Art
No. 5 (2014)The topic for this issue, New Materialism and Art, asks the question about what it means to think art as a material process, as an event of matter, that is at the same time part of both nature and culture. How does the ontology of art change within this framework? How does one rethink work of art in relation to society on the basis of active, self-differing matter? And finally, how does the new reconceptualization of matter reflect on the politicity of art?
