Winter 2012
Questions of “know-how,” “skill,” and “technique” have resurfaced in artistic discourse. Many practices are revisiting applied arts—ceramics, textiles, glass, etc.—, transgressing boundaries between craft, design, and contemporary art and disrupting normative values associated with such hierarchical categories. This issue will examine significant transformations that have resulted from this exploration of traditional media and the revival of the “well-made” object.

Agriculture
Winter 2024
Breaking sedimented divisions between rural and urban, this issue centres agricultural imaginaries and human-soil relations that challenge us to rethink our understanding of agriculture, its relation to histories of colonization, and the futures of agroecology, as well as our connection to land itself.
