Kontur 2/2018

In Kontur 2/2018, we explore the forms and conditions of beauty. The articles contribute to a critical discussion of beauty, norms and power. The aim is to nuance the concept of beauty and show how both explicit and implicit perceptions of beauty affect us today. The texts vary in form and consist of poetry, essays and dialogues.

Kontur is a laboratory that explores the potential of writing and living together, and examines established concepts from new angles. This applies equally to the working process and the journal as a product. Kontur is a process that is constantly changing and which, at the same time, shapes those of us who contribute to Kontur. Kontur is based in Helsinki. Kontur is a multilingual journal published in print four times a year.
