IT'S TIME TO GET SERIOUS: Jump-start the season with Artforum's
fall
preview: the most authoritative, up-to-date guide to contemporary art in
museums worldwide. Each September, Artforum critics from around
the globe
offer opinionated advance looks at the forty-plus upcoming shows that
matter most: Surrealism meets 60s-style eccentric abstraction in
Carroll
Dunhams cartoon universe, as the painters midcareer survey goes up
on
all three floors of New Yorks New Museum; the poignantly brief career
of
German cult favorite Blinky Palermo gets a retrospective look at
Barcelonas MACBA twenty-five years after his death; four years
worth of
recent paintings by German titan Sigmar Polke go on view at the Dallas
Museum of Art; and painters painter Franz Gertsch gets his very own
museum in Switzerland. Plus, in From the Vault: Robert Rosenblum
revisits the nineteenth century and the art of John
Constablethrough the
contemporary eyes of painter Lucian Freud.
Also in this issue: Linda Nochlin heads our four-critic report on
Documenta11, the summers most talked about exhibition of contemporary
art. On a lighter note, Artforums Entries columnist,
David Rimanelli,
takes us on a wicked and witty tour of the New York art world in his
monthly diary. Nico Israel tells us how he spent his summer
vacationin
search of Robert Smithsons fabled Spiral Jetty (which
reemerged from the
Great Salt Lake last month as if on cue). And Artforums
editor, Jack
Bankowsky, marks ten years at the magazine with a look back at the first
of one hundred issues and his introduction to an inexact
sciencehow to
choose a cover.
