The autumn issue of frieze d/e is out now, introducing Dominikus Müller as the new editor, supported by Pablo Larios as new associate editor. Together they have written this issue’s “State of the Art,” which asks, “Why do we yearn for fleeting forms of communication?” Elsewhere find features on Michael Buthe, Alicja Kwade and Tino Sehgal, interviews with Stephan Dillemuth and Antje Majewski, plus reviews of two major exhibitions on 1980s German painting and music, among others.

Welcome To This Situation: Tino Sehgal
“I realize that I don’t know the man. It just felt like I did. It’s a bit like a weird dream in the morning, just before waking up.” On the occasion of Sehgal’s survey exhibitions in Amsterdam and Berlin, novelist Oscar van den Boogaard and frieze d/e co-publisher Jörg Heiser share their experiences of the Berlin-based artist’s “situations.”

In Through the Out Door: Michael Buthe
frieze d/e editor Dominikus Müller takes a look back at the extraordinary work of Michael Buthe, the German artist and four-time Documenta participant who re-invented himself in mystical fashion in the 1970s and is the subject of a retrospective at Kunstmuseum Luzern this October. 

Also featuring
Berlin-based artist Antje Majewski speaks to Andreas Schlaegel about feminism, cosmic painting and the science fiction of objects; Elvia Wilk looks at natural motifs in the work of Alicja Kwade; and Stephan Dillemuth, who founded Cologne’s influential artist-run space Friesenwall 120, talks to curator and critic Saim Demircan.

Elsewhere in the issue:
Trouvaille: Periscope, David Rappeneau, Zerohedge and Rust: Berlin-based artist Daniel Keller selects four cultural artifacts for our regular column.

Acting Up: Sarah Khan reports on action art in Berlin, from Christoph Schlingensief to the Centre for Political Beauty’s controversial claim to have transported bodies of refugees to the capital in protest against the EU refugee crisis.

Sim City: “Berlin’s new face is emblematic of nothing in particular”: Architecture writer Carson Chan considers the past and future of Berlin’s cityscape, the subject of two exhibitions at the Berlinische Galerie.

Reviews: Explore 18 of the most interesting shows from across Germany, Austria, Switzerland and elsewhere—including Cyprien Gaillard at Sprüth Magers, Berlin; Jérôme Bel at HAU, Berlin; Hans Schärer at Aargauer Kunsthaus; Natalie Czech at Galerie Kadel Willborn, Dusseldorf; and Gustav Metzger at the Centre of Contemporary Art, Toruń.
