This October, L’Officiel Art—founded in 2012 by Editions Jalou—will be launching its first international edition entirely in English. Featuring essays and interviews with major figures of the contemporary art scene, including visual artists as well as designers, writers, choreographers, architects and filmmakers, L’Officiel Art is edited by Bruna Roccasalva and published four times per year.

In this issue:
Agenda reveals exciting news about the contemporary art scene all over the world. The section includes an interview with Sarah McCrory, director of the brand new Goldsmiths CCA in London; a conversation with Helen Cammock, winner of the 7th edition of the Max Mara Art Prize for Women; interviews with Mike Nelson on the occasion of his forthcoming exhibition at OGR, Turin; and Tomás Saraceno, who is featured at a solo show at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris this Fall. There are also articles on the upcoming editions of the Gwangju, Busan and Taipei BiennialsKatharina Grosse’s project for K11 in Shanghai this November; and the 57th Carnegie International in Pittsburgh, with an interview with curator Ingrid Schaffner. Suzanne Pagé unveils exhibitions by Jean-Michel Basquiat and Egon Schiele at the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris, while Jennifer Flay, the director of the FIAC, reveals the latest news about the festival’s 45th edition.

In Features, our cover story: an essay by Dieter Roelstraete on Kerry James Marshall’s political work that challenges the traditional “white” canon through history painting.

Myth explores the highly influential figure of artist Franz West (on the occasion of his retrospective at the Centre Pompidou in Paris) through contributions by Christine Macel, Heimo Zobernig and Gelitin, while Market is devoted to the legendary art dealer Paula Cooper, in celebration of the 50th anniversary of her New York gallery this year, with an exclusive interview by Lola Kramer.

For Spotlight, photographer Aubrey Mayer has captured artist Jacqueline Humphries at work on her large-scale paintings, while Berlin-based artist Kasia Fudakowski has conceived a special visual essay for the pages of L’Officiel Art.
