NASO’s editorial voice sets the framework for our conversations, while Guest Voices add immediacy and range through invited and open-call pieces that expand the conversation beyond our regular contributors.
The Guest Voices section expands NASO’s platform to include perspectives from beyond our core contributors. Here, we publish one-off collaborations with curators, writers, and cultural practitioners, as well as selected works from our open-call submissions. These contributions introduce new vantage points, broaden our conversations, and bring fresh energy to the journal.
While distinct from NASO’s own editorial voice, Guest Voices are integral to our mission: they allow us to remain responsive and open to dialogue with the wider artistic community. By welcoming both invited essays and submissions, this section embodies our commitment to exchange, inclusivity, and the multiplicity of perspectives that shape contemporary art in and beyond the MENA region.
