Going Underground in Venice: An Interview with Gilad Ratman
Gilad Ratman's video projects demand an extreme physicality from the friends and associates whom he enlists as participants. In Che Che the Gorgeous (2005), they lie on a cracked desert floor in what look like cocoons, singing and wailing, sounds that are then mixed in a home studio by a DJ. In Alligatoriver (2006), they undertake a noisy bacchanal in a supposedly alligator-infested river. Often his players act barely civilized, or borderline insane, with a propensity for wordless vocalizations, shaggy hair and unkempt couture.

New Foundations: An Interview with Katrin Sigurdardottir
To visit Katrín Sigurđardóttir's installation Foundation at the Venice Biennale, you must travel to the Palazzo Zenobio in the city's Dorsoduro quarter. There you traverse a courtyard garden, beyond which lies a spacious, grassy yard flanked by walls in diverse masonry. On the far side of the yard is a plain gray building that looks as though it has been sliced through horizontally by the black-and-white-tiled floor of a second, entirely unrelated structure.

Vienna's Wonders Back on View
The Vienna Kunstkammer evolved from the late Renaissance notion of the cabinet of wonders. It originally contained, apart from works of art, curiosities of nature that have since been disbursed to natural and ethnographic museums, or vanished. Still, it remains the largest and finest of its kind-and one of the greatest decorative arts collections on earth.
