Zurich: Parkett-Verlag AG, 2014. Softcover. VG. Color-illustrated card wraps with French flaps; approx. 297 pp. plus adverts, with color and bw images throughout; includes smaller stapled paperback: Parkett Artists' Editions: A Small Museum and a large library on contemporary art. Dual text, English and German. An international periodical specializing in modern art, Parkett was founded in the 1980s. "Ordinarily, contemporary artists take a distinctive stand in acting as participant observers of their own culture. In this issue of Parkett, however, the study of their immediate surroundings and milieu is an even more incisive source of action and inspiration. The objects, images and films made by Jeremy Deller, Dayanita Singh, Wael Shawky, and Rosemarie Trockel reference both past and present, drawing not only on meticulous research but also on immediate experience."
