Argument - English edition - January - March 2024

In this issue

The project of the magazine Argument was born from the idea of bringing together works, an audience of readers and artists, present through interviews, and of conceiving everything as a collective exhibition by placing artists at the center of the subject.

We want to create a direct link between the public, the works and the artist.

It is the artists who count above all: they write the world with the material, make us share their visions, their dreams, playing shapes and colors. They radiate poetry, wisdom and emotions.

Giving the floor to artists means devoting three-quarters of the pages of the publication to the reproduction of their works and making them talk about their work themselves. They are the most legitimate to talk about it!

You will not find any advertising, it is a deliberate choice to keep our independence.

Let's hope that reading the articles will encourage you to take your bike, a train, your car, a plane and come and visit the artists in their workshops!

Argument - English edition Magazine Description:

Argument magazine presents its special issue against the war in Ukraine aimed to give voice to Russian dissidents, anti-war artists and those who dare to openly protest against Russia's horrible invasion of Ukraine. They thus provide their support to the Ukrainian people.
Almost all of these dissident artists were forced to leave their countries; However, some have remained and they only exhibit their anti-war works underground, just like during the USSR era. They do not let go of their idea of waking up the hearts of people in Russia, helping them understand reality and getting rid of fear.
These Russian artists oppose and expose themselves to the regime of dictator Putin and are the first to be captured by his repressive machine.
