ABOUT
In the first issue of the ETC. Magazine we are concerned with all things locally significant. We are interested in artistic practices that pay attention to the local environment as a point of departure of artistic expression. Practices that look into the local as opposed to the global while remaining open to the possibility that such an opposition might no longer be relevant or could even be impossible. How can we still remain locally specific and what else do we speak about when we speak about our immediate environment and its specifics? Is the local present in tradition and reviving or rethinking of forgotten practices, habits and customs? How can local environment define an individual, define one's identity and what may be the fate of this identity in a foreign land? How to talk about the local in the digital era? Even when it comes to isolated cells formed by the social media we can talk about specific localities and domestication of the internet. And why after all that must we be concerned whether or not we are eating locally produced food?
