About

Urbanization is not just a trend. It developes our lives and our actions as we do conversely. It´s a give-and-take. open blackbook magazine is an e-zine about the consequence of this interactive coexistence – urbanity including urban arts and culture. Because of the variety of urbanity and the wide range of blogs telling you about it, we will present you on our website special pieces, which we think are worth to show you. And if you want to show your art to an audience or have an advice get in contact with us and you´ll be soon part of open blackbook.
