Volume 22 is on the theme of 'Incidental' (copy deadline: May 15 2008, to
be published July 2008)

Yve Lomax's book 'Sounding the Event' (London, 2005) provides the
inspiration for this volume. What is the status of an event? An incident?
This is key to both installation and performance works, namely, their
recognition as an event of note, as something which is recognised for
being an event. What is the contribution of women producers to the
production of noteworthy events in contemporary art? Another theme draws
on the other meaning of "incidental", in the trivial or minor, will be
used to explore concepts of the everyday in contemporary art.

The journal only publishes essays about the practice contemporary women
artists (4,000 words) and/or interviews with women artists by women writers.

n.paradoxa publishes work about contemporary women artists from all over
the world. Each volume is thematic.

n.paradoxa is published in English but articles can be written in any
language and translation will be undertaken by the journal but only when a
commission has been accepted.
