Parkett Vol. 1 #1 Enzo Cucchi

"We are aiming to produce a vehicle of direct confrontation with art, providing not only coverage about artists, but original contributions by them", writes Bice Curiger in the first issue. In this spirit Enzo Cucchi is the first collaboration artist – with texts by Jean-Christophe Ammann, Marja Bloem and Bice Curiger.

Also in this issue texts by Patrick Frey "The World of Gilbert & George," Oskar Bätschmann "The History of Art, Dead or Alive," and Dieter Meier "Christian Dior," Jacqueline Burckhardt "The American Dance Performer Dana Reitz," Theodora Vischer "Vivian Suter," Johannes Gachnang "A Trip to Genoa on Meret Oppenheim's 70th birthday."

And Cumulus from America and Europe by Barbara Kruger and Gianfranco Verna, and a Balkon by Peter Suter.
