I was just reading in this.
I was enjoying Sean Snyder's piece "Disobedience in Byelorussia" and digging his compare/contrast take on his interrogation by El Al security personnel with art world discourse.
He segues into some great discussion on Walter Benjamin's somewhat anarchic sympathies vis-a-vis critical form.
The other pieces look to be just as fabulous.
This is a nifty magazine that's trying to reshape art discourse, or render it permanently protean.
That's a project with which I feel a great sympathy.
And this passage is from Snyder's essay...
Here again, I see possibilities for the notion of hijacking art. If you can convince someone that art is intangible, it can act as stand-in for something else. And then maybe you can get something done with it, inside or outside any discipline if that is in fact what you want.
A magazine worth reading with an international consciousness.
