Subject: PUBLICUM: NEW ISSUE republicart web-journal


The new issue of the multilingual republicart web-journal is now online:

PUBLICUM

Whereas the concept of the public sphere was booming in the 1980s and  
90s, now more and more it seems to be examined critically in  
discursive and political contexts, and at the same time, as a point  
of reference for emancipatory practices, it appears to have gone out  
of fashion. In the art field a growing trend to address partial  
public spheres / communities has become evident. Here the concept of  
"art for all" that was previously understood as an emancipatory  
concept is in danger of being overrun by customer-orientation and  
audience fetishism in a neo-liberal context. The current focus  
examines the double meaning of "publicum" in a series of articles  
from the fields of political theory, art criticism and activist  
practice.
