ROT ISSUE ONE / IMMUNITY

Rot magazine is a research as well as a book of recipes. Intended as a performance between literary genres and disciplines, it plays between the serious and the banal.  Rot magazine functions as a catalogue linking the artists invited to the Rot Gardens editions of 2023 and 2024.

After the Issue Zero, the second issue of ROT, ROT One, is dedicated to the theme of IMMUNITY understood in a broad sense. “Considering art as a form of life, a form of transition, how do we assemble, but also how do we decompose? How are we affected, contaminated and infected? Art as a viral transmission to which we are certainly not immune, how do we intimate with its rotting, decaying and dying?”
