art-ist



art-ist takes a lively interest and focus on contemporary art practice in Turkey, re-examines the concepts of culture and power, and follows the ambiguous border between life and art space. Since the magazine is not funded by any institution, its future depends on young artists and writers’ contributions. Aside from observing the international visual arts events, art-ist also includes the following topics: visual art production in Turkey, the Balkans, Eastern Europe and Far East, in addition to the artworks of young artists and the very translation of their works within their social and political contexts depicting the differences of memories and cultural encodements which do vary in other cultures and spaces.
The editors are: Halil Atindere, Erden Kosova, Pelin Tan, Basak Senova, Sezgin Boynik, Alexander Brener, Barbara Schurz, Sureyyya Evren, and Azra Tuzunoglu.
