Archis goes on! December 14, 2000 Archis found a new publisher and will still appear next year though in a slightly different form. We recieved this message from the Archis editors: "GOOD NEWS!!! During the last few months this magazine has been teetering on the brink of extinction. Both parties in the existing combination, the Netherlands Architecture Institute and the publisher, Elsevier Bedrijfsinformatie, gave us to understand that as of December 31st 2000 they would cease production of Archis. But Archis is marching on. As of January 1st 2001 the title will be accommodated in an independent foundation. The publishing and exploitation will pass to Artimo in Amsterdam. This means that a platform where opinions on architecture, the city and visual culture can be shaped in freedom and independence has been saved from oblivion. Archis will still be the well-known forum for criticism, debate and research, though we are taking this opportunity to make a number of major changes to the format. Archis will be published in a modified form, beginning with the next issue. The magazine will appear six times a year, in a new design and in two separate editions, all-Dutch and all-English. Each issue will include a project dossier containing full documentation, a research survey bringing together visions and vantage points on a particular theme, and a report on innovations in the building process, materials and concepts. Naturally the focus on things extraterritorial and interdisciplinary will remain, as will the searching book reviews and the popular Chronicle. And all this on the principle that, from an editorial viewpoint, asking questions is of greater import than providing answers. We have worked hard to create a sound plan for the future. Now it is up to the reader, you in other words. We badly need your support, for needless to say there is no Archis without you!"
