OSMOS Magazine: Issue 12 in Bloomington, MN

OSMOS Magazine
is “an art magazine about the use and abuse of photography,” explains founder and editor Cay Sophie Rabinowitz (formerly of
Parkett
and
Fantom
). The magazine is divided into thematic sections—some traditional, such as “Portfolio,” “Stories” and “Reportage”—and others more idiosyncratic, such as “Eye of the Beholder,” where gallerists discuss the talents they showcase; and “Means to an End,” on the side effects of non-artistic image production. This issue,
OSMOS Magazine #12
, with a stunning cover by conceptual photographer Bing Wright, features an essay by Peter Weibel on interface technology in the film work of Kathryn Bigelow, a portfolio on Peter Funch, Simon Leung’s survey of recent work by Lincoln Tobier, and rare documentation about Ursula Block’s infamous record store and gallery, gelbe MUSIK, founded in 1981 as
the
Berlin outlet for experimental sound art and music.
