A glossy Berlin-born quarterly of art, fashion and culture. This latest issue is themed ‘Attitude,’ and is devoted ‘to attitude in all its facets: as a risk, as a protective measure, and as a source of strength.’
This 85th edition for Summer 2025 features interviews with an assortment of artists, creatives and personalities, including a conversation with fashion designer Jeremy Scott, speaking with Christian Bracht about his pivot from dressing pop stars to costume design for theatre, as well as an interview with the visual artist and this issue’s cover star, Ingeborg Lüscher, whose long term black and white photo series, titled ‘wizard photos,’ sought to capture a magic moment between her and her renowned creative subjects. Elsewhere, Charlie Stein’s essay ‘Life Without Art’ explores the fragile relationship between art practices and social anxiety in times of political vulnerability.
