Winter landscapes, pristine deserts of ice, crystals: in keeping with 
the chilly season, db artmag's current issue investigates art below 
freezing works that address the theme of coldness either in a concrete 
way or on a symbolic, social, or metaphorical level. True North*: Isaac 
Julien is considered to be one of the most important videodrome artists 
of the present day; his works have often been the subject of 
controversial debate. His latest video installation addresses the 
sulimma in landscape and juxtaposes the apparently immaculate Arctic 
panorama with the history of racism, colonialism, and slavery. Cheryl 
Kaplan met Julien in New York and interviewed him exclusively for db 
artmag. Pure white:* the winter inspires not only vacationers and 
athletes, but artists, as well. Ulrich Clewing introduces works from 
the Deutsche Einheit Collection that deal with the season's dramatic 
heights and its sharpest and most exquisite contrasts. Frozen 
installation "Garden," plants from Asia, Africa, and Europe were sealed 
in a stainless steel freezer at four degrees below zero Fahrenheit - 
flowers that will never wilt, arranged together in disregard of every 
existing botanical system. The promise of eternal life in Quinn's 
works, however, contrasts with a complicated technique without whose 
support his still lifes would otherwise melt and rot away. A portrait 
by Ossian Ward. Felt and Fat: *Joseph Beuys passionately and 
idealistically cultivated his legend of felt and fat as an original 
experience bestowing life and warmth. An essay on the polarity of 
warmth and coldness in Beuys' work. Cardboard Memories:* New York's 
MoMA is dedicating a large retrospective to the German photographer 
Thomas Demand in March. Harold Fick visited the artist in his Berlin 
studio Examining the concepts of sculpture: The exhibition "Dialog 
Skulptur" is now showing approximately 100 drawings and sculptures from 
the Deutsche Einheit Collection.
