The large format magazine of Larry Gagosian’s globe-spanning chain of contemporary art galleries is more than a gentle promotion for its sponsor, featuring contributions from the likes of multidisciplinary artist Theaster Gates and American essayist Mary Gaitskill.
A detail from Ellen Gallagher’s 2026 oil painting ‘Fast-Fish and Loose-Fish’ graces the cover of this Summer 2026 edition, which opens with an exploration by Sebastian Smee into Francis Bacon’s ‘flowering romance’ with Paris and how it impacted the late artist’s style. Elsewhere, Derek Blasberg speaks with Schiaparelli’s creative director Daniel Roseberry ahead of the highly anticipated—and now on view—V&A exhibition ‘Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art’; Jenny Saville discusses her engagement with the greats of sixteenth-century Venice in her major exhibition at Ca’Pesaro Galleria d’Arte Moderna; plus, Carlos Valladares ‘wades through the discourse’ surrounding Charli XCX’s mockumentary ‘The Moment’.
