Alan Licht is a New York-based musician and writer. In this issue
Alan discusses how artists are exploring intersections between cinema
and life. Author of Sound Art: Beyond Music, Between Media (Rizzoli,
2007), and a contributing music editor at BOMB, he has written for
The Wire, Sight & Sound, Purple and The Village Voice, among other
publications. A composer and improviser who has performed with
everyone from Tom Verlaine to Michael Snow to Devendra Banhart to
Rashied Ali, he is the cofounder, with Sonic Youth’s Lee Ranaldo,
of Text of Light, a group which combines free improvisation with
screenings of experimental cinema.
Artist and photographer Valerie Stahl von Stromberg has exhibited work
in numerous exhibitions and contributed to titles such as Another Man
Magazine, 032c, Qvest, Dazed, Very, Die Weltwoche, Spex, The Fader,
Tank and Index Magazine. Based between Berlin and London, her next
solo exhibition, VSVS, will be at Jones & Truebenbach Galerie, Köln.
We sent Valerie to Leipzig to photograph this month’s Art Pilgrimage.
Doug Fishbone is the brains behind the Strip this month, using the
comic timing of a native New Yorker to poke at every odd phenomenon,
from death-by-elephant to Al Qaeda. Doug is perhaps best known for
his project 30,000 Bananas, a huge mountain of ripe bananas installed
in the middle of London’s Trafalgar Square in October 2004. His video
and performance work was included in the British Art Show 6 (2005);
his first solo show was at Gimpel Fils in 2006; and he contributed live
performance work to exhibitions at London’s Hayward Gallery and ICA
in 2007. This month he’s participating in the exhibition Laughing in
a Foreign Language at the Hayward Gallery. Art shouldn’t be funny?
Who are we kidding?
Jessica Morgan wrote this month’s cover story on the Belgian artist
Kris Martin. Jessica is a curator and writer based in London, where
she is currently Curator of Contemporary Art at Tate Modern. The
numerous exhibitions she has organised include Common Wealth (2003)
and Time Zones (2004), the 2006 retrospective of the late, acclaimed
German artist Martin Kippenberger and the 2006/7 Unilever Series, by
Carsten Höller, in Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall. She has developed a
series of solo exhibitions at Tate Modern of international emerging
artists, including Meschac Gaba, Jan De Cock, Roman Ondàk, Catherine
Sullivan, Simryn Gill and Brian Jungen. Jessica has published and
lectured extensively on contemporary art, with essays appearing in
numerous exhibition and museum catalogues, as well as in art journals
such as Parkett, Artforum, Grand Street and The Art Newspaper. She
is currently writing a book on Cindy Sherman for Tate Publications.
Our man in Paris, Christopher Mooney, is currently busy putting the
finishing touches on a novel, building an elaborate hut in a remote
corner of the British Columbian rainforest and organising a 35-course
opera based on the life and lunch of Raymond Roussel. For this issue
Chris wrote on the relationship between art and fashion brands.
London-based photographer Tim Gutt has produced work for numerous
arts-related publications, ranging from those for the Pet Shop Boys
to the Henry Moore Institute. His exhibition Inner City was at Claire
de Rouen Books last October, and this May he will be screening a short
film at Tate Modern as part of the Co-conspirators programme of the
2008 Fashion in Film festival, curated by Louise Clarke. Tim
photographed Albanian artist Anri Sala in this month’s issue.
