Video art is ready for its close-up! Flash Art kicks off the new year
with
the first half of a two-part series examining the state of contemporary
video and film. Our jam-packed Jan-Feb issue celebrates ongoing
innovations by key practitioners working with the moving image today.
And for the very first time, Flash Art is pleased to present two
different
covers for the new issue — Vanessa Beecroft and Jeremy Deller — pick
your favorite or buy both!
“Focus Video and Film” zooms in on Jeremy Deller, Vanessa Beecroft, and
Paul Sietsema; Claire Bishop interviews Anri Sala, Ann-Sofi Sidén, and
Mark Leckey (who also presents a special project in our pages); Gregor
Muir considers the appeal of the documentary style to artists like
Kutlug
Ataman, Nick Relph and Oliver Payne, and Pavel Braila; and Joshua Decter
finds himself seduced by Monica Bonvicini’s and Anna Jermolaewa’s
videos.
We round out our coverage with a panorama of over thirty video artists
and
filmmakers worth your consideration.
Also in this issue: Maurizio Cattelan on what’s right about the Wrong
Gallery, reports on the Contemporary Auctions and the economy in
postlapsarian New York, the unveiling of Art Basel Miami Beach, Paul
