Chto delat. What is to be done?


Publisher: Chto delat

Chto delat/What is to be done? was founded in early 2003 in Petersburg by a
workgroup of artists, critics, philosophers, and writers from Petersburg,
Moscow, and Nizhny Novgorod.

Since then, Chto delat has been publishing an English-Russian newspaper on
issues central to engaged culture, with a special focus on the relationship
between a repoliticization of Russian intellectual culture and its broader
international context. These newspapers are usually produced in the context
of collective initiatives such as art projects or conferences.

Beginning with the first issue of 2009, Chto delat No. 01-25 "On the Use of
Art," we have decided to parallel our work on the newspaper with a thematic
webjournal that collects a selection of texts that were important in
articulating the issue's conception. We will also be using this space to
publish expanded versions of texts too long to be published in the newspaper
in full, as well as texts did not fit in the paper.

This web-magazine will contain texts in English and Russian mostly, and of
course, we will be making an effort to translate everything in the course of
time. We also plan to expand each issue of this journal to expand
constantly, as new texts and translations are added.
