FEATURE
Art as Commodity as Art: Christopher Townsend on the legacy of the Pictures Generation and MTV
The Pictures Generation artists of the early 1980s—Robert Longo, Richard Prince, Cindy Sherman et al—who emerged just as MTV muscled up alongside the young field of video art, set about dissolving the boundaries between art and the techniques of mass culture. But by adopting forms that had been thoroughly co-opted by the engine of commercial production, was the space for critical subjectivity fatally compromised?

FEATURE
Indifferent Objects:
In our obsession with objects what has happened to the subject, asks Laura McLean-Ferris
Artists such as Danh Vo and Henrik Olesen have recently been using objects in their art in a way which implies that the objects themselves carry some embodied essence or agency. But where does such object-oriented thinking leave the human subject?

FEATURE
Venice Inside Out: Patricia Bickers on the real lines that divide insiders from outsiders
At the Venice Biennale, as elsewhere, curators are marshalling 'outsiders' and 'real people' for the benefit of curious spectacle-seekers. But isn't such apparent inclusiveness simply a curtain that hides the persistent asymmetry of power?

EDITORIAL
Signs and Wonders
The current curatorial obsession with the wunderkammer, or cabinet of curiosities, abandons centuries-old traditions of rational thought. What have we been left with now that the materialism of the 1980s has been reignited by the connectedness of the internet age?

ARTNOTES
Chancellor George Osborne's latest spending review outlines further cuts to the arts, bringing ACE's total cuts under the coalition government to 40%; Yoko Ono's Meltdown festival finds itself with a fracking corporate sponsorship conundrum; Swiss riot police clear out an unofficial party outside Art Basel with the use of pepper spray and rubber bullets; dealer Marc Jancou fails in his bid to sue artist Cady Noland for 20m GBP after she disowned a work he had purchased; artist Orlan accuses Lady Gaga of forgery and sues for 31.5m GBP; galleries open, move and expand; the latest news on events, appointments, prizes and more.

Seth Siegelaub: Remembered by Lawrence Weiner
Curator Seth Siegelaub, one of the playmakers behind the rise of Conceptual Art in the US, died in June 2013. A two-part interview with Siegelaub was published in AM327 and AM328, the first part of which can be found on AM's website. Artist Lawrence Weiner was invited by AM to contribute some thoughts on his former collaborator—his response is published on p21 of AM368 Jul–Aug 2013.
