conversation XXXV
Reto Pulfer (*1981, CH, lives and works in Berlin) in conversation with John Beeson (lives
in Berlin; regular contributor to Artforum, Spike Art
Quarterly and Texte zur Kunst)
Who writes makes no art
By using flexible materials such as dyed cloth,
thread, paper or wood, Reto Pulfer creates cave- and tent-like structures,
which function as spaces for perception and experience. They deal with states
and conditions as moments of transition and movement. The artist is currently
finishing his first novel. Together with John Beeson, he will discuss the
relationship and interdependencies between writing and art-making – because:
„Writing means not making art, but in the same way to find more precise
articulations than by making art.”
