MOST RECENT ISSUE

October 2026

The contributions in this October issue of FORUM+ present pedagogical and artistic practices as "rehearsals for agency", as spaces to exercise imagination, appropriate existing tools, invent new ones, and set situated conditions. As community-building around shared values comes under pressure, FORUM+ aims to offer an open space for diverse practices that are often sensitive, situated, embodied, and vulnerable.
