Written, edited, illustrated and published by both well-established and emerging artists, the mission of New Observations is to present a diversity of editorial voices and topics from the many aesthetic and cultural traditions that constitute the arts. New Observations features a wide range of visual art, artists’ projects for the page, essays, poetry, and fiction.

Issue #129 is packed with cutting-edge and archival content from some of the most engaging members of the New Observations community. The issue explores alternative ways in which artists have interacted with art-making and the community around them, bringing together seminal artists from Fluxus, Street Art, Correspondence Art, Contemporary Intermedia, Experimental Utopias and beyond. #129 presents the artists who distribute work for free or outside the normal economy of exchange.
