Volume 40 (July 2017) n.paradoxa

Volume 40 (July 2017) of n.paradoxa: international feminist art journal has just been published on the theme of 'Ends and Beginnings'.

This volume marks 20 years of the journal's production and it will be the last volume of this journal. The 40th volume is thus in itself both an end and a beginning – as well as a bumper edition of 104 pages, compared to the usual 96 pages. Volume 40 represents both an end to a particular feminist publication but it also heralds the beginning of many new projects in which feminism's ongoing debates over the past 40 years will take on new forms of debate, possibility, display and dissemination.

The history of the journal and the international approach taken to feminism and contemporary art has been unique – 550 articles from artists, writers living and working in more than 80 countries around the world have been published. The editor, Katy Deepwell, outlines this history in the opening article of this edition and how the journal has been and remains an intervention in debates about feminism and contemporary art.
