OSMOS Magazine: Issue 25

<p><b>This issue of <i>OSMOS</i> features, among other artists, the work of Ramell Ross, director of the Academy Award–nominated film <i>Nickel Boys</i></b></p><p>From Cay Sophie Rabinowitz, former Senior Editor of <i>Parkett</i> and founder of <i>Fantom</i>, <i>OSMOS</i> is an "art magazine about the use and abuse of photography." Each issue is divided into thematic sections: some traditional, such as "Portfolio," "Stories," and "Reportage"—and others more idiosyncratic, such as "Eye of the Beholder," where gallerists and curators discuss the talents they showcase; and "Means to an End," on the side effects of nonartistic image production. This issue features a portfolio of work by artist Matthew Brandt; an essay by curator Michal Nanoru on Czech painter Jakub Matuska; an intimate look at the work of RaMell Ross in Hale County, Alabama; and the first publication of long-lost images of the 1968 Russian invasion of Prague, shot on medium-format negatives by James P. Mayer. </p>
