Our Mandate

FUSE is an arts and culture magazine for readers looking for in-depth coverage of innovative and alternative art practices. We don't cater to collectors or the mainstream profit-oriented art dealers, but look instead at art that is politically engaged and relevant to understanding our contemporary world. FUSE Magazine, with a thirty year publishing record, looks at the "why" as well as the "who" and the "what" of art-making, taking on the important issues of our time and relating them to art activity. People who want to understand the relationships between art, social change, activism, politics and the mass media should be reading FUSE!

FUSE is a site of discussion, dissemination and mobilization. In the context of the art world, FUSE plays a pinnacle role in providing reporting, documentation and critical thinking on socially and politically engaged arts practices. Our mission is to source out and publish artwork and writing that engages and critiques the roles, actions and implications of artists and "the arts" in social movements.
