 Composed by a collective of  artists from very different horizons,
Web and non Web,  the online magazine Panoplie.org aims to be a
platform for exchange between artists and Net surfers : Calls for
participation, performances, writings and follow-ups of artistic
projects and events are mixed to propose an original approach and
highlight problematics of art on the Net. In projects like "Why Rock"
(2005), "Habiter" (2006 ) and "Robots" (2007), Panoplie.org also
treats universal themes in a contemporary way and makes them
accessible to a larger public. While collaborating with galleries and
official art institutions     Panoplie.org helps to discover and
instore new artistic practices in the realm of traditional art.
