When Thomas Ruff created his series “jpegs,” (2004–22) he was missing the image itself. After witnessing the fall of the Twin Towers and capturing photos from the ground, he returned to Germany to find nothing on the strips of film that were in his camera. Seeing how documentation of the event proliferated online motivated one of his most iconic works. In conversation with Louisa Elderton, the photographer discusses his historical approach to images and how to document tragedy itself.

“Walking into the exhibition ‘Call me gravity’ at WIELS in Brussels, I half-expected to find myself in the numbered world of credit, debit, and interest rates. Curator Pauline Hatzigeorgiou proves that assumption dead wrong. She has refracted the concept through a kaleidoscope, reconsidering it financially, generationally, socially, and karmically…the results of this refraction are uneven: in some works, the conceptually rich frame sharpens the story the works are already telling.”

“The classical body and the Soviet body are, it turns out, the same body: two different political projects modeled on the same ideal. Serapinas’s art school education was a formal training in copying these very objects, the founding reference points of the entire Western tradition of the idealized male form, upright, proportioned, physically perfect, and radiating disciplined virtue. These were the standards against which student work was measured, the standard to be aspired to.”

In Berlin, Henri McMaster’s studio is speckled in animal furs, images of creatures, and photos of uncanny forms. It’s awash with references and materials that demystify the artist’s anthropomorphic forms. Taking us through her studio for this issue’s Studio Scene, Eilidh Duffy reveals how McMaster’s childhood in Canada, love for archeology, and Anne Carson influence her body of work.

#356 FALL 2026 “Borders” IS OUT NOW  

At the confine between two entities, many things can emerge: movement, conflict, understanding. The Fall issue of Flash Art explores the concept of borders –– not just geographic ones, but poetic, conceptual, and material –– seeking to uncover how permeating these divides informs our material reality.

Luzie Meyer’s works, marked by sound and performance, have a rhythm to it. In her piece “The Acquisition of Language & The Language of Acquisition,” presented on KW’s Pogobar Podcast as a long, spoken poem, there is a beat to her delivery that dissolve the linguistic layer around words, returning them to their origins as sounds. Pointing to how she leverages poetry and philosophical influences, Tabea Marschall listens carefully to Marshall’s perception shifting works.

Rose Salane’s film “Mercurial New York,” pursues a near rite of passage for American artists: create a picture of New York, capturing its capricious, yet hopeful energy through the lens of the current generation. In conversation with Chiara Siravo, the artist talks the creation of the work for the Venice Biennale following Koyo Kouoh’s passing, philosopher and anthropologist Ernesto de Martino’s conception of loss, and the proximity of her work to Duchamp’s
“Box in a Valise.”

Salane’s film “Mercurial New York” is currently on view in the Arsenale at the 61st Venice Biennale, “In Minor Keys,” through November 22, 2026.
