Of Hermes and History
In this issue editor Todd Ayoung collected works based on the concept of “Hermes and History,” “a metaphor for the carrier and translator of information who writes the world through communication, creating dialogue, (either conflictual or consentual) crossing place, reconfiguring words, and in this context, offering visual art in exchange for space.” The works here exhibit both historical and modern aspects and perspectives, often existing as fragments of both pieced together into a new whole.
Contributors: Herman Asselberghs, Jim Costanzo, Henry Du Moulin, Rainer Ganahl, Johan Grimonprez, Interim Sites, May Joseph, Carsten Juhl, Janet Koenig, Jun Ozaki, Dean Sakamoto, Gregory G. Sholette, Allison Smith, Fatimah Tuggar, Sergio Vega, Brian Wallis, and Fred Wilson…Order here
A Memory Palace
In this issue editor Charlie Citron delves into memory, inspired by Jonathan Spence’s The Memory Palace of Matteo Ricci, which tells the story of the 16th Jesuit monk who taught Latin memory techniques in China. The artists explore a range of memories, from personal recollections and historical anchors to the influence of memory and identity in art.

Cultures of Cyberspace
Editor Alan Sondheim collected texts about the Internet with images chosen as a counterpoint – “they reflect spaces and bodies that are effaced, occluded, ghostlike” (“Populating Cyberspace” by Alan Sondheim). The contributions look at various spaces on the Internet as well as the then current state of cyberspace, on the cusp of the major boom – when Amazon.com had not yet made profits.
Contributors include: Laurie Cubbison, Alexanne Don, Jerry Everard, Amy Fletcher, Radhika Gajjala, Eve Andree Laramee, Nick Mamatas, Jon Marshall, Caitlin Martin, Michael W. Spirito, John Suler, Ryan Whyte, and others.

Fertility
Editor Erika Knerr saught a contemporary approach to “an infinitely old subject” in this collection of works on fertility.

TEACHART
In this issue editors Lucio Pozzi & Bradley Rubenstein explore their concept of TEACHART: speaking of teaching and art as well as the more mystical “Tea Chart.” Pozzi states, “Despite the substantial difference between a regulated tradition such as the tea ceremony and the anarchistic developments of modern art, art nowadays has become similar to the tea ceremony in its complete yet structured lack of utilitarian purposes.” Rubenstein writes more specifically about the importance of teaching art and hints that perhaps the roles of artists and pedagogue are inherently linked.
The issue also includes works, statements, and essays by Joseph Beuys, Angiola Churchill, Barbara Flug Colin, Jeremy Gilbert-Rolfe, Harmony Hammond, Ike Hobbs, bell hooks, Joan Jonas, Mike Kelley, Karen Kimmel, Jeff Koons, Robert C. Morgan, Michael Rees, Mira Schor, Blake Stimson, Claude Wampler, Lilly Wei, as well as an interview with Sezer Aykan by Peter Halley…Order here

Popular Metaphysics
Guest Editor Andrew Boardman: “Millennial urgings, public obsessions with the end of time and history, and the resurrection of enchanted realms have seemingly supercollided to form what might be called popular metaphysics. As diversely popular subjects as they are, the X-Files, deep ecology, miracle sightings, Psychic Friends, and science’s re-apprehension of the cosmos all have in common a newly shared belief in the meta of physics - that beyond the material world there exists a spirited and structured universe greater than our current consciousness can absolutely ascertain.”

Sex and Death
Editor: Dorothy Cross
“I live in Ireland, a country which glorifies death while sex is repressed and hidden. The United States, on the other hand, glorifies sex and death is denied. I have invited artists from both Ireland and the U.S.A. to contribute here. The practice of art contains dynamics of both desire and death; one is promised, seduced and disappointed simultaneously such that meaning and lack of meaning confirm each other.” (from editor Dorothy Cross’s introduction)

Leningrad: Paradoxes of Isolation
Edited by: Selma Holo
In this issue editor Selma Holo and contributors pay tribute to the unofficial artists of Leningrad, an underground movement born out of the isolation of artistic tyranny in the Soviet Union. “The most rewarded of Soviet artists, whether painters, poets or composers, were charged with fulfilling the propaganda needs of the Communist Party … Any member [of the Artists’ Unions] who was willing to depict Socialist imagery, ‘scenes of factories, collective farms, patriotic wars, straining muscles, outstretched arms, tired smiles, dialectical optimism’ was charted for success.” The unofficial artists produced work, even though it could never be shown or printed or performed legally.
Features include: “The Unofficial Artists of Leningrad: A Brief History” by Tatyana Shekter; “The Other Artists: Inventors/Alcoholics? Dissidents? - The Early Years: 1950-1970” by Constantin K.

Edited by: Shirin Neshat
This issue brings together art and artists dealing with bi-culturalism. Editor Shirin Neshat states in his introductory essay: “The life of an immigrant manifests numerous contradictions. Often the search for a new identity within the foreign culture creates a crisis of no-identity. Once the process of adaptation occurs, one experiences an incredible sense of apathy. In exchange he has become partially stripped of his most fundamental beliefs and perceptions of the world.”

Paracriticism 2 Dissent
Edited by: Maurice Berger
“The age of Reagan can be characterized by a myopic and heartless decline of government funding for the ever increasing ranks of desperate Americans… Rather than ignoring such social injustice (or seeing it as irrelevant), a number of artists … have chosen to act as full participants in society rather than buy into the myth of the artist as the bohemian or the dandy who lives outside the reality of class.” (from editor Maurice Berger’s introductory essay “What Does Homelessness Have to do with Art?”)
