Guillermo Lasarte, Charlotte Specht, and Rad Mora launched PANTA in 2013 from Berlin as the publishing arm of Book a Street Artist, an international platform dedicated to repositioning and revaluing street art globally. The tri-annual magazine — later biannual — set out to celebrate what its founders called artivism: creative work that uses art, design, street intervention, photography, illustration, music, and performance to make a positive impact on society. The name itself means "everything" in Greek, and the editorial ambition matched: every issue reached across disciplines and borders.
Fourteen issues were published between 2013 and 2019, initially through MagCloud's print-on-demand service (a deliberate choice for a self-funded project that prioritised independence over commercial printing budgets) and later in expanded print runs. Contributors included artists like Ganzeer, whose cover art graced issue eight, street drummer Dario Rossi, and the Uruguayan mural collective Colectivo Licuado. The magazine covered emerging creatives alongside established names, with the explicit goal of giving young talents a platform — a space where a student illustrator could sit next to a renowned street artist without hierarchy.
People of Print praised the magazine for building a platform that supported creative talents using their craft to address social, cultural, and environmental issues. PANTA ceased publication in 2019, but its fourteen issues remain a vivid document of a decade when street art moved from the margins to the centre of cultural conversation — and a Berlin collective made sure the world noticed.
