Spring / Summer 2006

[In French] Signe d’authenticité, la signature dit l’origine de l’œuvre. Depuis toujours elle a permis à l’artiste de revendiquer sa singularité et a été preuve et repère pour la fondation du jugement esthétique. Ce dossier fait appel à des réflexions sur les multiples façons d'identifier ou de signer l'œuvre ou le processus artistique, ce que l'on pourrait nommer les formes nouvelles de signatures, incluant le portfolio de Carl Trahan.

Current Issue

Immersion

Winter 2026

This issue is interested in all forms of immersion in contemporary art. How are artists critically engaging with immersive technologies? Conversely, what kinds of practices are challenging technology in their pursuit of immersion? How are these experiences breaking down the boundaries between spectator, body, and art? We put forward proposals that rely on listening and sustained attention rather than on amplification and sensory overload – works using devices that are sometimes relatively simple and non-invasive, sometimes a little more elaborate, but in which participation is, with a few nuances, neither passive nor devoid of critical thinking.
