Founder and editor of OSMOS Magazine Cay Sophie Rabinowitz (formerly of Parkett and Fantom) describes the publication as “an art magazine about the use and abuse of photography.” The magazine is divided into thematic sections—some traditional, and others more idiosyncratic.
In Issue 24, Maria Ines Plaza Lazo offers a read of Leila Hekmat’s exhibition at Haus am Waldsee, thinking through Hekmat’s theory of “female remedy.” Tom McDonough touches on the political unconscious, focusing in on Alfredo Jaar’s critique of media. Christian Koun Alborz Oldham reflects on the Japanese tradition of Ikebana and his own studies with major contemporary Ikebana practitioner Kosen Ohtsubo. Kate Fowle offers a close read of Sherill Roland’s complex world-building, situating his practice alongside his biography. Furthermore, the issue features Roscoe B. Thicke III, David Maljkovic, Peter Halley, and more.
