An Emotional Visit to a Dystopian Wasteland
Looking at art is an experience between emotional and cognitive understanding. But what if we were to switch off the rational part of our mind and let ourselves be guided entirely by emotion?

Territory, Marginalisation, and Humanity are being renegotiated – 13th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art
The 13th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art bears witness to humanity's woundedness, to contexts of injustice in other countries, and to sites of escape and exile. Sounds “gruelling”, but in many places it is above all deeply enriching, profound, and has eye-opening power, if we are able to get involved.
We would like to invite you to this special event organized by our member Palmyra Sculpture Centre. A 6-day workshop of weaving, art and nature, from October 15-20 in Mallorca – in cooperation with the art magazine See All This. Limited spaces available!
20 Years Sculpture Network – 14 Years Sculpture Park Ile Art
As part of the events celebrating the 20th anniversary of Sculpture Network, there could hardly have been a more fitting Dialogue than the gathering of art enthusiasts and artists on 7 June 2025 in the expansive Ile Art Sculpture Park in Malans, France.
For this issue’s selection of Featured Artists, we were inspired by Margherita Moscardini’s work The Stairway, currently on view at the 13th Berlin Biennale. Like the steps in her installation, the works of our three members are made of sandstone. You can discover more of their artworks on their profiles!
