Utopie et dystopie

Winter 2005

[In French] Le dernier dossier de notre trilogie 20e anniversaire se penche sur la notion de l’utopie, mise en perspective avec notre contexte social, politique et artistique. Ainsi, plus qu’un regard sur le futur, auteurs et artistes proposent des problématiques qui sont intimement liées à une réalité bien actuelle.

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.
