Artist + Artist—the section launched in 2025 with key conversations between Simon Denny and Hito Steyerl, and between Cory Arcangel and Maya Man (CURA. 45: Blackout)—now expands into a complete takeover of CURA. with the first Artist + Artist special edition. Through an interwoven dialogue—both generational and intergenerational—among international artists, this issue explores the major questions, discourses, practices and urges currently crossing the landscape of contemporary art, i.e. dialogue intended as a necessary condition for inhabiting space and time—a realm made of alliances, shared possibilities, opacities, and conflicts.
CURA. 47: Artist + Artist—with over five hundred pages and two different graphic covers, designed by Dan Solbach—takes shape through an extensive relational framework in which practices intersect, critical thought is nurtured, and collective discourse is called upon to engage in constant negotiation and exchange. Artists who share practices, imaginaries, and media thereby give rise to a vast space of resonance – one that activates new possibilities of meaning alongside folds and zones of contact where artistic thought is built both individually and collectively.
