Aims & Scope

PUBLIC is a beautifully designed peer-reviewed journal founded in Toronto as an intellectual and creative forum that focuses on how theoretical and critical issues intersect with art and visual culture. Each issue's editors explore a contemporary theme by bringing together a unique assemblage of Canadian and international art projects with writing by scholars, curators, critics, and artists. This, along with book and exhibition reviews, creates an assemblage of artists projects and original writing on prescient contemporary themes in art and culture.

Further information can be found on the journal's external webpage: http://www.publicjournal.ca/.
