For fifteen years La Part de l'Œil has stood out as one of the main authorities in the field of aesthetics.

The most important critics, philosophers, artists, academics, writers... contribute every year to the review;

A section of each issue is dedicated to approaching the major questions of art from a contemporary prospective.
