The new issue, Print and Space as One, explores printmaking as an art discipline that provides opportunities for intimate sensorial interplays as well as for orchestrated performances. Contributing art historians, curators and artists expand upon notions of print in relation to space by examining processual endeavors (Darko Glavan: Fortuity of Making and Print Tradition in Josip Butkovic’s Practice); investigating the kinetics of a crowd in flux (Katerina Kyselica: Jan Mericka’s Screen Printed Transcriptions of Human Motion); challenging the physical border that divides the front and back of a print (Mario Causic: Print and Space as an Enduring Challenge in Three Rooms); balancing precarious actions across the boundary between illusion and materiality (Eva Nikolova: 21 Fragments of Yesterday and Tomorrow); and discovering a parallel expression in printmaking techniques (Katerina Kyselica: For Dusan Kallay, Everything Relates to Everything Else).
Spotlight, a category showcasing an artist’s work from a private or public collection (Emily O’Leary: Vincent Hloznik’s Dreams), premiers in this edition. An essay that lays a claim to the artist’s book’s omnipresence in contemporary art is also included (Dorota Folga-Januszewska: A Subconscious Key to Ordering the World: The Artist’s Book in Poland).
