Sur is a contemporary art journal published by Bom Dia out of
Mexico City twice a year. Both a publication and a series of invitations,
Sur is premised on aesthetics of encounter, specifically between the writing, art, and ideas expressed in
Latin American culture in relation to discourses, philosophies, and art generated elsewhere. Published in both Spanish and English,
Sur creates a new and necessary space for engaging and amplifying such discussions.
Each year
Sur is released in two corresponding issues, with one issue dedicated to exposition and experimentation and the other devoted to related dialogues premised on the publication's editorial mission: to facilitate encounters between the cultural and intellectual life of Latin America and that which lies further afield.
Sur is released in the Spring and Fall of each year.
