Begun in the early Eighties, this artist-run periodical features a wide range of visual art, artists’ projects, essays, poetry, and fiction; each issue is guest-edited and devoted to a specific cultural theme.
Editor Erika Knerr saught a contemporary approach to “an infinitely old subject” in this collection of works on fertility. Contributions include literal identifications with fertility, creation imagery, infertility, reproductive technologies, germination, all attempting to evade the clichés of fertility seen in such places as 1970’s feminism and new age religion.
