The Summer issue of ArtReview looks at our relationship with places – not as political entities, but as geographies and terrains. How do landscapes influence the lives of those who live in their midst? Cover artist Uzbek filmmaker Saodat Ismailova has consistently turned her lens towards the cultures, ecology and suppressed histories of Central Asia – a region profoundly reshaped by Soviet industrialisation; her work, writes Fi Churchman, highlights ‘the gap between what once existed and what remains.’ Stephanie Bailey speaks to Shuruq Harb, who also makes moving images, about Palestinian history and storytelling beyond politics. Chiara Wilkinson considers Ana María Devis’s forensic studies of domestic space, in which decay is treated as a generative material. Jenny Wu revisits Marcel Duchamp through questions of place and encounter, while Martin Herbert turns to another of the twentieth-century’s big hitters, Francis Picabia, whose work continually showcased an evolution of styles and mediums. Elsewhere, Clive Chijioke Nwonka looks at Arsenal’s title-winning images; Jenny Wu goes several rounds with the Philadelphian legacy of movie character Rocky; Jamie Sutcliffe reviews a newly translated science-fiction comic; Mariacarla Molè reports from Palermo; Helen Charman reflects on Olga Tokarczuk and AI; and Jessica Lanay interviews poet Nicholas Goodly. Plus reviews from around the world including Copenhagen, Berlin, London, Rotterdam, New York and Lima, as well as reviews of books by Byung-Chul Han, Daisy Dixon, Amelia Abraham, Irénée Scalbert, Lawrence Weiner and Cal Flyn.
