With a mix of irreverence and sincerity, artists John Baldessari and Meg Cranston here tackle nothing less than the question of God. Acting as curators, they have invited 100 artists to respond to one of art's most enduring picturing the divine. The artists selected are those whose work the curators know and admire, those who possess the sense of humor and audacity necessary for such a project, or artists who are "likely to surprise." The works in this exhibition explore many different themes, including miracles, divine intervention, baptism, heaven, martyrdom, and the search for enlightenment. Included is one work by each of the 100 artists--primarily drawings, photographs, and paintings, along with a few sculptures and single-channel videos--some of them made in response to the curators' call for participation. Represented artists include Reverend Ethan Acres, Eleanor Antin, Chris Burden, Sam Durant, Jimmie Durham, Nicole Eisenman, Katharina Fritsch, Liam Gillick, Jack Goldstein, Scott Grieger, Rebecca Horn, Christian Jankowski, Mike Kelley, Mary Kelly, Martin Kippenberger, Louise Lawler, Roy Lichtenstein, Rita McBride, Paul McCarthy, Catherine Opie, Tony Oursler, Jorge Pardo, Raymond Pettibon, Paul Pfeiffer, Richard Prince, Rob Pruitt & Jonathan Horowitz, Gerhard Richter, Susan Rothenberg, Ed Ruscha, Gary Simmons, Lawrence Weiner, James Welling and Franz West.
For 20 years, Parkett has explored and discussed significant international contemporary artists through the insights of esteemed writers and critics. Issue No. 73 continues this tradition, featuring collaborations by Paul McCarthy, Ellen Gallagher, and Anri Sala. McCarthy's provocative 1970s performances invite us into the realm of LA-based experimental art, confronting our primal urges and repulsions. Delve into McCarthy's post-pop masquerade to uncover the roots of his unique sensibility. Gallagher's work presents meditative, collaged canvases that tackle sobering race relations with playful elements like toy eyeballs and Mammy-styled lips. Sala, an internationally acclaimed Albanian-born artist, captivates with enigmatic videos and photographs that evoke a sense of déjà vu. His images serve a documentary purpose, showcasing moments like his mother’s interview for the Communist Party and friends on a beach coaxing ghost crabs to "score." Also featured in this issue are artists Jason Dodge, Wangechi Mutu, Tania Bruguera, Lucy McKenzie, Matthew Brannon, and Carsten Nicolai. The writings include contributions from Thyrza Nichols Goodeve, Michelle Cliff, Ben Okri, Lane Relyea, Tim Martin, Jeremy Sigler, Mark Godfrey, Jan Verwoert, Lynne Cooke, Isolde Brielmaier, RoseLee Goldberg, Angela Rosenberg, Dominic von den Boogerd, Debra Singer, Natasa Petresin, and Fabrice Stroun.
