Himmel 
Und Hölle


Following the protagonists of the international aggregator art scene, this periodical examines their often innovative exhibiting strategies, artistic forms, neo-medieval sensibilities, and post-apocalyptic moods, situating these practices and narratives within a broader aesthetic, social, and technological landscape — at the dawn of the Night era. Methodologically, the publication positions itself at the intersection of contemporary art, the history and theory of art, game studies, as well as social, political, and migration studies, alongside discussions of the green economy and adjacent fields.
