Alongside ARTMargins Online, there is now a new publication: ARTMargins Print (published by the MIT Press). ARTMargins Print invites researchers and practitioners to critically reflect on what we call the “thickened global margin,” encompassing historical, geographical as well as philosophical or theoretical post-peripheries. We are interested in full-length articles (maximum 8000 words), review articles (max. 3000 words) as well as short reviews of books and exhibitions (1000 words).

ARTMargins publishes two new interviews with formers members of OHO, David Nez and Milenko Matanović. The Slovene OHO group, which formed in the late 1960’s, consisted of Milenko Matanović, David Nez, Marko Pogačnik, and Andraž Šalamun. It belonged to the wider Slovene OHO movement and regularly collaborated with this wider circle of intellectuals and artists. After very intense three years of working together, the members of OHO decided no longer to pursue success in the art world, trying instead to live closer to nature and to explore spirituality. Today OHO’s legacy represents one of the crucial references for Slovene contemporary art. A major Slovene prize for young artists has been named after the group.
