Fukt, Issue 23 – The Sound Issue

Fukt is dedicated wholly to contemporary drawing. Established in Norway in 1999 but later settled in Berlin, this international publication has been archiving exquisite collections of drawing based artwork. Featured with interviews, essays and put together in unrestricted layouts, this yearly periodical has become something to look forward to. The magazine is designed by Ariane Spanier and edited by Björn Hegardt.

In this issue:

The Sound Issue traces the relation between sound and drawing, where they meet, overlap, and translate each other.

How can a drawing capture rhythm, voice, or noise? What does sound look like on paper?

From graphic scores and musical structures to resonance, vibration, and listening, this issue brings together artists who turn sound into image and image into sound. Some works follow the pulse of music, others trace the invisible currents of electromagnetic fields, the voices of whales, or the inner sound of thought and memory.
