From fables to art historical allegories, Sophie Reinhold’s sources of inspiration are eclectic and often informed by the semiotics of power.

After visiting ‘Bewusste Vernachlässigung ist auch keine Lösung (Deliberate Neglect is Not a Solution Either)’ at Halle für Kunst Lüneburg, Gabriela Acha writes on Reinhold’s practice, discussing the concept of deconstruction, popular symbols, and the artist’s relation to German history.

“Jencks’ home is a space that both admits all aliens and denies the alien. Indeed, if the cosmic view is about nothing else, it’s about drawing the line of division at the exact scale of the universe itself and working backwards.”

Postmodernist architect Charles Jencks built The Cosmic House as his home in Holland Park, London. Now a museum, it stands as testament to his idiosyncratic architectural style and currently, is resident to a site-specific installation by artist Tai Shani.

William Kherbek writes on Shani’s interest in the “Uncanny”, irrationality in architecture, and generative fiction.

Introducing our new feature topic for November and December, Alien.⁠

First devised with the “extra-terrestrial” in mind, the topic Alien has taken an urgent turn in light of political events this week. Trump’s reelection and Germany’s introduction of the highly controversial “antisemitism resolution” underpin a violent rhetoric against migrants. We aim to think about how the figure of the “alien”—both extra-terrestrial and extra-legal—might be repurposed as an emancipatory political tool.

“Institutional critique, for me, is […] engaging in reflexive critique; it’s more nuanced, and it’s also why sometimes I describe it not as a political practice, but as an ethical practice."

Andrea Fraser is an artist and writer who has come to define the field of institutional critique, pinning down the art world’s flawed mechanisms of production and power through Bourdieusian and psychoanalytic lenses. Adela Lovric interviews Fraser, talking political landscapes, the domestic vs. the private, and radicality in the museum.

Schering Stiftung presents ‘Labor Lab’, an exhibition of new experimental photography by Sarah Ancelle Schönfeld engaged with the complex issues surrounding control mechanisms of female reproduction. By dropping formulas including breast milk and the contraceptive pill on pre-exposed negatives, Schönfeld translates bodily processes into a visual form.

The exhibition runs until December 1st. ‘Labor Lab’ is accompanied by a series of events, such as lecture ‘The Pill: Changing Perspectives on Safety and Self-Determination’ by Prof. Dr. Mandy Mangler, followed by a conversation with Sophia Wagemann on November 28th.

“When memory is solidified, such as in a monument or an official history, it often produces a cut, a separation from the flow of time and from the complex relations around it.”

Kandis Friesen’s ‘Archives at a time’ finally opened at the Odesa National Fine Arts Museum this summer after four years of delays including the ongoing war, the exhibition inflected by the precarious reality of life in Ukraine.

Dagmara Genda interviews Kandis Friesen on memory, artifice, and the concept of the monument:

25/10/2024

The theme of work has long been central to Carla Abilés’ practice. Using discarded materials from the garment industry during art school in Salta, Argentina, Abilés would embroider found poetry from the clothing’s tags and labels. Employing the same embroidering process, Abilés’ current practice speaks to racial disparity, care work, and tactility.
