Maska 215-216 is out now!

Intellect is pleased to announce that Maska 215-216 is out now!

 

Theme: ‘Somatics’

 

The impetus for the theme of this issue is the fact that interest in somatic practices has visibly expanded in Slovenian contemporary art in the last decades. These are holistic approaches to movement that explore movement from the perspective of how it can be understood and felt from within and not how it is performed and seen, which tends to open completely different insights into the connection between mind and body.
