Parkett 82 features sculptor, diarist and preeminent Feminist Louise
Bourgeois; the theatrical, shamanistic Polish artist Pawel Althamer and
New York sculptor Rachel Harrison. Essayists on Bourgeois include Robert
Storr, whose text is aptly called "Mother of Them All/Sister of Some,"
Tracey Emin and Griselda Pollock, while Althamer's collaborators are
Massimiliano Gioni, Catherine Wood and Adam Szymczyk. Harrison's work is
discussed by Ina Blom, Richard Hawkins, George Baker and Alison
Gingeras. Also in the issue are texts by Burkhard Meltzer on Susan
Philipsz, Jan Verwoert on WACK, Jeremy Sigler on Brock Enright, Kenneth
Goldsmith on UbuWeb and Suzanne Hudson on the 60s hippie retreat Esalen.
The Cumulus texts are by Mark von Schlegell and Catherine Chevalier.
