Mousse 34.
An issue about dOCUMENTA (13)
Summer 2012
The thirteenth edition of documenta, opening in Kassel at the beginning of June 2012 has, in fact, been going on for quite a long time already. In terms of duration, geography, and content, dOCUMENTA (13) has been—and is—much more than an art exhibition. Several initiatives have been conceived and executed in different places—at different times—involving a wide range of intellect from different fields.
Mousse was invited to participate in and contribute to the diverse and evolving discourse promoted by dOCUMENTA (13). The summer issue of Mousse discusses some of the most striking and original contributions to the show, both in Kassel and abroad, focusing on selected art projects and putting writers, artists, critics, and thinkers across the spectrum in conversation.
