She is an art critic and author based in Los Angeles. Her fine art and design reviews, features and interviews have appeared in more than 20 publications. She is currently the LA Managing Editor at Flavorpill.net. Juergen Teller helped to change the face of fashion photography during the 1990s through his work for iD and The Face and fashion campaigns such as Helmut Lang and Marc Jacobs. He has gone on to become one of the leading lights in contemporary art photography. Recent exhibitions include Nürnburg, at Lehman Maupin, New York, and a solo show at the Fondation Cartier, in Paris. Teller’s first solo exhibition in Scotland, Awailable, is on show at Inverleith House, Edinburgh, until 15 April; Juergen will also be exhibiting in the Ukrainian Pavilion at this summer’s Venice Biennale. For this month’s cover Juergen flew to L A to photograph another icon, the director David Lynch. Ian Monroe is known for his large-scale collages on paper, made with monochrome or wood-grain vinyl, sometimes also including carpet and linoleum, depicting cavernous interior spaces and faux architectural planes. The works investigate the nature of idealised spaces – the showroom, the corporate office block, the church and the hyperreal environments of science fiction and computer games – and the way they cater to specific desires or lifestyles that maintain certain kinds of collective social myths. For this issue Ian created the Manifesto pages – a monthly feature in which an artist is invited to interpret the magazine’s content in the form of an artwork. PLANIT, an exhibition of Monroe’s work is on show at Haunch of Venison, London from 2 to 31 March. Tom Parfitt is a correspondent in Moscow for The Guardian. He has lived in Russia since 2002, after studying at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies in London. Last year Tom’s editors commissioned him to write about the city’s rash of new chic industrial conversions and its threatened utopian architecture. Putting those stories together brought him contacts in the artworld who helped him compile this issue’s Moscow Art Pilgrimage. Ivan Pustovalov used to have a boring job in a bank. Now he takes photographs. This transition has not been without its struggles. His first camera was stolen in Madrid, and another complete kit was swiped in Goa. “I shoot the things that really touch my heart”, he says, “from dog fights to celebrity portraits for glossy magazines, from reportage to famous actresses.” We’re not sure where the photographs he shot for us in Moscow fit into that. hana Nys Dambrot photo: ERIC GRUSH.
