Current — Magazine #3


Editorial Design

The third magazine issue for a festival for art and urban space in Stuttgart, Germany.
CURRENT is a transdisciplinary festival for art in urban space. Within the framework of installations, performances, discussions and workshops, the festival uses the city as a model to engage with the present.
The second edition entitled “Unruhe bewahren! (Stay agitated!)” took place in Stuttgart’s Bad Cannstatt from 14 to 24th September 2023.

The programme focused on the debates over urban space and the way it changes over time, and invited us to observe urban spaces via artistic means and perspectives. It addressed the transformation of inner cities, the influence of digital technologies on physical public space, on community and exchange, on the handling of resources, on (dis)order and disruption – the search for a foothold within transcendence.

The CURRENT team has been working intensively on the continuation of the third issue of the magazine—Magazine #3. It is seen as an expanded exhibition space that keeps the dialogue on art and urban development alive. Under the title "Unruhe bewahren!" (Stay agitated!), the issue explores the ambivalence of unrest. Artistic voices from the second festival edition are juxtaposed with essays, reflections, conversations, and interviews. The contributors demonstrate in various ways how unrest can be harnessed as a driving force to promote societal dialogue.
