Texte zur kunst is a German contemporary art magazine.

History

Texte zur kunst was founded in 1990 in Cologne by Stefan Germer and Isabelle Graw and is published in Berlin since 2000. Since the death of Stefan Germer Graw is the sole publisher and manager.

Contents

Texte zur kunst is published in the relatively small format of 166 x 230 mm and contains approximately 300 pages. Each issue focusses on a theme and features German and English essays, interviews, round-table discussions and reviews in which contemporary art, film, and music but also fashion and design are discussed. In in-depth essays, art-historical questions and topics relating to socio-political theory and cultural policy are discussed. Thematic focus is on areas of institutional critique, feminism, media criticism and theory of subjectivity.

With each edition, Texte zur kunst offers an artist's edition by a contemporary artist.
