Ursula — Issue 16 / Fifty Years of Looking

Ursula — Issue 16 / Fifty Years of Looking

Published by Hauser & Wirth, Ursula is the rare gallery magazine that reads as a magazine first and a programme document second. Issue 16 centres on art as lived practice — woven into friendship, memory and community — and leads with the title's first cover story devoted to a collector: Los Angeles patron Eileen Harris Norton in conversation with the artist Mark Bradford.

Elsewhere: Michael Govan on museums as civic spaces, Rachel Garrahan on the Surrealist roots of Elsa Schiaparelli's couture, an oral history of downtown New York from Steven Watson, and a Firelei Báez portfolio. The kind of issue that justifies the subscription on a single essay. Semi-annual; UK cover price £16.
