The performing arts magazine Maska (in English: The Mask) is a successor to the modernist magazine of the same name which was launched in 1920. Since 1993 published by Maska Institute, this bilingual (English and Slovene) magazine appears three times a year and is mostly topic-related. Maska brings critical reflection on current productions (domestic and international), texts about the key reformers of the twentieth-century scene, and translations of contemporary theoretical texts.


Some recent titles include: Art, Society, and Feelings; Performing Visuality, Performing Life: practices in Slovenia from the 60s to 80s; History, Experience, Archive; Europe in Capitalist A(rt) Minor; Nomenclature of Space; Art of Writing; two issues devoted to an overview of Slovene contemporary dance and art production Does Production Dance Alone?; Art in the Grip of Education, etc. Each issue includes also interviews with artists and theoreticians, reviews of performances and books, as well as articles on the cultural politics.

With the fall/winter 2006 issue of Maska, the journal is designed by the Slovakian designer Martin Mastrik, who received an honourable mention at the 2007 Slovak National Prize for Design. Mastrik was chosen as Maska’s designer on the basis of a design competition.

International cooperation

Maska journal has participated in numerous collaborative projects: the issue Fama, a bilingual (English and German) journal, published in co-operation with Frakcija journal of Zagreb to coincide with the Munich Dance Festival, which was dedicated to the thematisation of the status of the body in different cultures and artistic practices and included texts by Hans-Thies Lehmann, Andre Lepecki, Aldo Milohnić, etc.; together with Performance Research and again Frakcija, Maska prepared an issue devoted to the positioning of aesthetic forms, re-mapping and reconfiguring of East and West Europe, and reflecting on the similarities and differences in assumptions about form and relational structures within the apparently shared European frameworks. The on-line journal in Kassel 2007, which compiled the articles that had been published on the leitmotifs of Documenta 12 in the more than 100 media around the world, also involved Maska journal.
