Propaganda of the Word: 12 Years of Fucking Good Art

For the sixth year of its magazine residency, Kadist welcomes editors and artists Robert Hamelijnck and Nienke Terpsma of Fucking Good Art (FGA), Rotterdam! To launch their latest issue, New Existentialism, and in celebration of the past twelve years of their publishing activity, FGA has assembled a small exhibition showcasing thirty-five past issues that will be on view at Kadist through February 19. Next Wednesday, following a cocktail and game hour, they will present briefly about their history and research-in-progress experimenting with live narration over video clips. The conversation will focus in particular on FGA #35 New Existentialism, #31 It’s Playtime, and #29 Italian conversations: Art in the age of Berlusconi, unexpectedly and unfortunately newly relevant in the wake of current political events in the US.
