Issue #23, April 2025

Hello dear reader,

You are holding the 23rd issue of our magazine, featuring artists from all corners of the globe.

This time, we invite you to reflect on whether there is still room for authenticity in a world deeply immersed in global and mass culture.

Most of us grow up within families, inheriting a cultural code. Some of us are even privileged to communicate with older generations and absorb their fading, undiluted experience of life before mass communication connected every part of the world. Today, when something happens on one end of the Earth, the other end hears about it almost instantly. Just fifty years ago, only major events managed to cross those distances.

Access to art has changed as well: through social media, we can discover the work of an artist from a small town—an artist who now has the power to influence far more people than ever before. It’s becoming increasingly difficult to avoid the pull of global trends and preserve a unique creative path. This challenge lies not only in the subtle imprint left by everything we see but also in the pressure to adjust to the expectations of a worldwide audience.

Of course, public demand has always influenced creators. History is full of brilliant artists whose contemporaries failed to appreciate them. The difference now is that today’s audience is the entire world—right here, right now, all at once.

That’s why I believe it’s more important than ever to support those who stay true to their vision, resisting all outside influence.

Ahead of you lie over 100 pages filled with art. Enjoy the read!
