Parkett : The Parkett series with contemporary artists. (Zürich : Parkett-Verlag, 2012)
The artists in this issue of Parkett—El Anatsui, Nathalie Djurberg, Rashid Johnson, R. H. Quaytman—each chart a path to their own specific worlds and each in their own way. Nathalie Djurberg’s universe “leads us into a netherworld, inferior and infernal, a world where both the characters and the viewers are turned into animals” (Massimiliano Gioni). So playful in appearance and yet precariously balanced on yawning abysses, hers is an archaic universe of loops, of compulsive repetition, of ambiguous dramaturgical objectives. A vital element in her art is the music of Hans Berg and it is with great pleasure that we announce a first for Parkett: the ninetieth issue comes with a CD. (editorial by publisher)
