Founded in 1962 and instantly recognisable for its iconic square format (and—if it happens to be face down—Gallerie Bruno Bischofberger advert on the back), Artforum is one of the US’s leading contemporary art publications.
Inside, a tribute to the late Philip Leider, described as a critical contribution to putting Artforum on the map of art reviewing. The translated edition of ‘Theory of Seeing’ by Władyslaw Strzemiński is analysed for its anthropological insight into visual perceptions and how this essay aids us in seeking alternative ways to view art through history. An exploration into Bettina’s multidisciplinary and deliberate transformations of her artworks, notable for turning abstract structures into ‘spiritual insights’. Inserted between features are dozens of international exhibitions and gallery recommendations.
