OSMOS Magazine - Issue 14

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 features an essay by Tom McDonough on Raymond Boisjoly, a portfolio of images by Mishka Henner as introduced by Kenneth Goldsmith, an interview with David Ogburn by Leslie Hewitt, Isolde Brielmaier on artists engaging with migration and borders, a reportage from North Korea by Matthew Connors and a reflection on America’s most successful girl group, The Supremes, as performers who made themselves for and in broadcast media.
