For our eleventh issue, we looked at the often mythologized spaces where art is born : the artist studio. Photographer Jeff Henrikson spent spring crisscrossing New York City to chronicle the studios of eleven contemporary artists : Joe Bradley, John Chamberlain, Francesco Clemente, Joan Jonas, Maggie Lee, Nate Lowman, Nick Mauss, Win McCarthy, R.H. Quaytman, Jessi Reaves, and Olivia Vigo. Elusive rooms where thought takes form and where concept becomes creation. What he found is as varied as the city itself. These studios expand and evolve in tandem with the artist’s career. If some spare, others vast and commanding, all bear the unmistakable imprint of the persons that inhabit them. They are more than workspaces; they are extensions of their mind, places where instinct meets intention, and where art begins. There is a long-standing mythology surrounding the artist’s studio. It’s a subject endlessly photographed throughout the annals of art history. We are drawn to these sites of creation, voyeurs peering into the makings of inspiration. But Henrikson offers something more curious, more nuanced. His is a study stripped of romance, favoring instead on clarity. Legendary artist Joan Jonas graces our cover with the quiet force and radical clarity that has defined her decades-long practice. Her presence sets the tone for a collection of stories that look beyond the finished artwork and into the private, often chaotic spaces where ideas first take shape. In this issue devoted to artists and the spaces they shape, we turned our fashion lens toward a different but equally charged environment: the gallery. Photographer Marie Deteneuille collaborated with stylist Rae Boxer and crafted a visual narrative inspired by the commanding presence of the gallerist with model Saskia de Brauw in the staring role. Both subject and object, she moves through the space not only as a purveyor of art but as an embodiment of it. The result is a portrait of a woman who exists within the architecture of the gallery but transcends it. She is at once dealer, curator, muse, and masterpiece.
