Mute Vol. 1 No. 22: The Art Issue

What does it mean to publish an art issue now? For Mute, it means revisiting a subject that, together with technology, was its raison d'etre when it first launched in late 1994. For now it is art's potent place in the knowledge economy that has catalysed us this time.
