PS:Jahresring #61 – Jahrbuch für moderne Kunst

 - PS:
An intertextual and interdisciplinary approach to exploring some contemporary cultural resonances with respect to gender and sexuality.
The Jahresring series is one of the longest continually published annual journals for contemporary art in Germany. The 61st edition is a reader and visual sampler with contributions from visual artists, writers, poets, musicians, choreographers, and designers. Bringing together a discursive array of forms and timbres, it takes an intertextual and interdisciplinary approach to exploring some contemporary cultural resonances with respect to gender and sexuality. In this sense, a “PS” or postscript might be understood as a place where relations or realities not explicitly stated in the main body of any given text, but nevertheless underpinning them, are revealed. A “PS” is a place of interpersonal agency; a compelling textual gesture that might add a “by the way” and an “also” and a “you know what we're really talking about.” By its nature, a “PS” is contextualized and contextualizing. Though it may parade as the last word, it never is.
