A glossy, Berlin-born quarterly of art, fashion and culture. This Spring 2026 ‘Leadership’ edition investigates who is shaping the zeitgeist and how. As Christian Bracht writes in his editorial: ‘Leadership is not demonstrated in moments of attention, but in moments of decision.’
As always, this issue features interviews with an assortment of artists, creatives and personalities, including a conversation with cover star Sophie Passmann speaking with Christian Bracht about the performance inherent in her role as a public figure, and the freedom of surrendering to interpretation. Elsewhere, choreographer and performer Amanda Donato reflects on the story behind two of her most pivotal works, alongside her wider influences and background in psychology, and an interview with journalist and author Paul Ronzheimer examines his wide-ranging career reporting from areas of crisis, as well as spotlighting leadership under pressure.
