Bruit

Winter 2007

With a connotation that is more negative than that of sound, noise is generally perceived as a nuisance, a parasitic element that insinuates itself within a system to spread disorder. This issue aims to deepen the reflection on the notion of noise in current art, the specific form of exploiting sonorous material evident in the work of an increasing number of artists. Including portfolios by Christof Migone, Jean-Pierre Gauthier, and Jocelyn Robert.

Tourism

Spring Summer 2024

Because it is essential for it to be open to the world, art is particularly affected by concerns related to planetary travel. From a position at the intersection of contemporary art, leisure, ecology, and destination culture, Esse no. 111 observes artists’ and critical thinkers’ strategies for revisiting the very notion of tourism. Although the harmful impacts of the tourism industry are beyond question, the thematic section avoids falling prey to tourismphobia and simply pointing out its failures. Rather, this issue offers a guided tour of situations and places where art and tourism converge.
