South as a State of Mind is a bi-annual arts and culture journal published in Greece and distributed internationally. Possessed by a spirit of absurd authority, we try to contaminate the prevailing culture with ideas that derive from southern mythologies such as the ‘perfect climate’, ‘easy living’, ‘chaos’, ‘corruption’, and the ‘dramatic temperament’, among others. Through our twisted – and ‘sou

thern’ – attitude, expressed through critical essays, artist projects, interviews and features, we would like to give form to the concept of the South as a ‘state of mind’ rather than a set of fixed places on the map. People from different – literal or metaphorical – ‘Souths’ renegotiate the southern attitude, partly to define it and partly to invent it, within the post-crisis world. Opening up an unexpected dialogue among neighbourhoods, cities, regions and approaches, South as a State of Mind is both a publication and a meeting point for shared intensities.

Have you got your copy of the new issue ?
( if not, Try do you read me , it might be in you proximity )
The new issue of South as a State of Mind explores the layers of coexistence. A concept that is easier said than lived. The current issue is partially inspired by various past ‘editorial’endeavours.

One of them is a publication titled, Global Visions: Towards a New Internationalism in the Visual Arts (ed. by Jean Fisher), which stemmed from the Iniva symposium, A New Internationalism, held at the Tate Gallery (now Tate Britain) in London in 1994, a quarter of a century ago. What has really changed since then, besides the terminology? Two of the participants, Sarat Maharaj and Olu Oguibe address this question by responding to their original texts, which you will find reprinted in the issue…
