TEAM network, Transdisciplinary European Art Magazines, has been launched as a move towards increased international co-operation and exchange of ideas.
Initiated by Mouvement, and developed in collaboration with several european partners, the network aims at enhancing common thinking on priority issues and defining a programme of joint initiatives and actions.
Confronted to an often binding economic reality, to the necessity of a strong political commiment and the need of thorough intellectual debates, independent editors and publishers of art magazines in Europe have much to exchange. From the different angles of the European continent where the most authoritative art magazines are conceived, critical positioning and practical experiences are extremely rich and diverse. It is important today to have a chance to debate these issues together, to learn from each other’s experience and to further reflect about our common professional activities about how to preserve our independence, critical level and public proposal.
Team Network is made up of 11 european art magazines. You will find in this section their respective profiles, contact information and updates on current projects and publications.
