PUBLIC 67 is out now!
Intellect is pleased to announce that PUBLIC 67 is out now!
In foregrounding bodies as sites of reflection, analysis, interpretation, resistance, praxis and wonder, the journal brings together a diverse group of artists and scholars who all situate their own bodies—and the bodies of others—as generative sites of meaning-making.

Aims & Scope
PUBLIC is a beautifully designed peer-reviewed journal founded in Toronto as an intellectual and creative forum that focuses on how theoretical and critical issues intersect with art and visual culture. Each issue's editors explore a contemporary theme by bringing together a unique assemblage of Canadian and international art projects with writing by scholars, curators, critics, and artists. This, along with book and exhibition reviews, creates an assemblage of artists projects and original writing on prescient contemporary themes in art and culture.
