ARTMargins is a publication with an online outlet (ARTMargins Online) and a print outlet (ARTMargins Print). Both have distinct content but share an interest in publishing research, criticism, and artistic projects that advance our understandings of post-socialism, postmodernism, and postcolonialism, within the framework of a global art history. ARTMargins explores the shifting geo-political, aesthetic, and economic configurations that shape the art production in the margins, attending to narratives and territories that have been excluded from contemporary art history.

NEW: ARTMargins Print 13:2
ARTMargins Print is pleased to announce the publication of the Volume 13, Issue 2. A recurring idea in the current issue is difference and contradiction. While art historiography has often treated artistic styles and movements as integrated and consistent wholes, with bookended beginnings and closures, and treated artists as equally stable authorial voices rooted in their respective dispositions, art practice for the most part is marked by contradiction rather than consistency, challenging us to capture the dynamism that contradiction and difference produce in art.
