[EN] is an arts criticism platform rooted in Groningen, NL. We believe in slow reflection, in sustainable criticism, and the power of extensive contemplations and considerations - and wish to move away from "actuality" and rushed writings.
Currently, we are facilitating the production and spreading of art texts and entering several archives for republications.
