The System Issue
Fukt, the extraordinary magazine on contemporary drawing is back! This time with an issue about systems. Alongside the obvious meaning and, its Swedish or Norwegian translation as ‘moist’ or ‘damp’, the Berlin based magazine, constantly blurs all you’ve ever thought about what a magazine focusing on contemporary drawing could be like. Through the lens of lines, scribbles and strokes artists as Andreas Töpfer, Judith Braun, Jim Carrey (yes, you’ve read correctly), among many more, unveil how they put into question alleged systems, languages of order and relations, in which we organize and make sense of our environment. As the optical-unconsciousness arises the latest Fukt issue will literary draw you in, and prove that the earth is not flat, even though, the act of drawing could imply precisely that!
