In issue 15 ….

_Massimiliano Gioni traces a portrait of Klara Liden and her seemingly post-atomic world.
_Jennifer Allen sheds light on the multiple capacities of images: to trigger affinities, to alienate, or just to leave us indifferent.
_Caroline Corbetta, in a conversation with Ragnar Kjartansson, investigates the artist's cultural influences and the decadent nightlife of Reykjavik.
_Michele Robecchi gives an overview of the steps that have led Cristoph Büchel to become one of the highly-regarded and feared artists on the contemporary scene.
_Cecilia Alemani explains why Ryan Trecartin is the poet of Generation Y.
_Anna Daneri shows how Roland Flexner's work constructs layers, condensations and galaxies where the viewer's gaze and imagination can wander.
_Raimar Stange interviews Natascha Sadr Haghighian about her fictitious artist, Robbie Williams, unveiling the mechanisms behind the glamour of a solo show.
_Chiara Leoni investigates João Maria Gusmão and Pedro Paiva's fascinating philosophical chimera.
_Max Hernández-Calvo follows Armando Andrade Tudela through Peru, reflecting on the slippery nature of Modernism's shared terrain.
_Alessandro Rabottini roams among the thoughtful apes and approaches the LSD-laced fountains of Klaus Weber's installations.
_Paola Nicolin rummages through the fragments and ruins of Pablo Bronstein's universe.

LOS ANGELES: Andrew Berardini zeroes in on the relationship between images, incantations, agony, and the figure in the work of Matthew Monahan.

LONDON: Alli Beddoes, Ryan Gander's studio manager, accompanies us on a visit to the English artist's current works-in-progress.

BERLIN: Christiane Rekade explains why Mandla Reuter's simple acts create shifts in the exhibition context that open up the possibility of unexpected situations.
