PUBLIC Issue 69 is out now!

Intellect is pleased to announce that PUBLIC Issue 69 is out now!

Theme: ‘The Witch’

Edited by: Tamara De Szegheo Lang, Emily Pelstring and Dan Vena

In August 2021, The Witch Institute came to life as a seven-day virtual symposium to address the figure of the witch in art and media. For its duration, the symposium served as a collaborative meeting space for emerging and established voices, all of whom were responding to increasingly conservative political climates through critical, intersectional, and multi-modal engagements with the figure of the witch. This issue of PUBLIC represents some of these responses.
