, who represented Germany at the 2003 Venice Biennale, also exhibited recently at Magnani in London.

Paul Graham's new series, American Night, currently on show in New York and London, pursues the artist's interest in the nature of vision. Val Williams discusses how Graham's work, a visual narrative which contrasts poverty and affluence in the American urban landscape, explores the boundaries between art and politics.


Paul Graham, American Night, 2003


The installation of Wolfgang Tillman's exhibition at Tate Britain this summer reinforced his philosophy of a non-hierarchical way of seeing. The artist kindly accepted our invitation to make a personal selection and layout of his photographs for publication in this issue and these are accompanied by an essay by Mark Durden.


Wolfgang Tillmans, Muskel, 2001


We profile Anneè Olofsson's atmospheric photographs of mother/daughter and father/daughter relationships which scrutinise deep-seated metaphysical fears. Parveen Adams discusses the paper world of Thomas Demand, and John Slyce writes on the 'unidentifiable' Cindy Sherman.
