Side Magazine
In the run up to the opening days of Bergen Assembly 2022, the seven faces of the Heptahedron are explored through Side Magazine, published by Wirklichkeit Books. Each of the seven issues are dedicated to one of the characters.
Side Magazine is conceived of as a site of research, each issue giving shape to one of the seven characters that will be staged at Bergen Assembly in 2022, convened by artist Saâdane Afif.
A special eighth issue includes installation images, which will be published after the opening days. When collected together they constitute the exhibition catalogue
and guide.
You can buy Side Magazine here in Norway, or here for the rest of the world.
