A project of the artistic collective, unlike the magazine, the Bridge Journal only appears as a hardcover journal until the artistic collective approves its online release. An archive of the work and interests of the Bridge artistic collective, it also represents the efforts of artist members to expand the existing public scholarship in the discipline of their expertise.

AVAILABLE NOW:

Bridge Volume 24, Number 1: IMPERATIVE CATEGORIES
