ARTMonitor 8/2010: The Art Text

This issue is dedicated to the forms of artistic writing that are not fiction, critique or science, but interesting examples of the new kinds of essay writing that can be found in artistic research. Here the text is not a tool for inspection and control of research and thinking, but rather texts that are building blocks of open artistic processes of the most diverse kinds.
 
The issue is based on the international conference ArtText that was held at the Dickson Palace in Gothenburg 2009.
