VIS issue 13 is out!

The issue Brieftopia contains six expositions emphasising exploration of an imagined realm – a fleeting yet delightful sight into an imaginative future, a momentary glimpse into a potential future that is both accessible and tangible, a brief utopia, a brieftopia. Editor of the issue is Behzad Khosravi Noori.

The term Brieftopia was coined by the editor of this issue, Behzad Khosravi Noori, as a method of artistic research toward future investigation. A brieftopia is a moment where art and politics intertwine – a temporary refuge where we can envision another world, while also inspiring change in the present.

VIS #13 brings together artistic explorations that challenge existing structures and imagine new ways of thinking about the future, society, and belonging.

Release event tonight during Artistic Research Spring Forum 2025. Time and venue: 18 March at 18:00, Skjenkestua, Kristiania. Go to the event: ARF Spring 2025
