Cultured Magazine

CONTRIBUTORS We asked: "Which exhibition are you most looking forward to this fall?" Raul Barreneche, a New York-based architectural designer and journalist, is the author of 10 books on architecture and design, most recently "The Tropical Modern House," published by Rizzoli in 2011. He has written extensively for major publications, including Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, Departures, Town & Country, Martha Stewart Living and The New York Times. He holds a professional architecture degree from Carnegie Mellon University. "I cannot wait to experience the Met's presentation of Janet Cardiff's The Forty Part Motet at the Cloisters. It's a hauntingly beautiful sound installation based on a 16th century choral piece. It's usually shown in white-box gallery setting, but to hear it in the nave of a medieval Spanish chapel at the Cloisters should be off the charts!" 28 CULTURED Douglas Friedman was born and raised in New York City and now divides his time between his hometown and Los Angeles. He shoots portraits, interiors and fashion for Harper's Bazaar, Vogue Italia, InStyle and The New York Times. This issue marks the sixth cover Friedman has shot for Cultured. Meghan Dailey is a writer and editor living in Brooklyn with her husband and their six-year-old son. She's worked on the editorial staff of Interview and Art+Auction and has written for Modern Painters and W, among other publications. A regular contributor to Cultured, Dailey profiles curator and collector Gordon VeneKlasen for this issue.  "I think it would have to be the "Comic Future" exhibit at Ballroom Marfa, curated by Fairfax Dorn. I happen to be obsessed with Marfa, Texas these days." "Sculptor Isa Genzken's retrospective at MoMA will be a dose of serious fun. I love her ingenious assemblage sculptures and I can't wait to see them in the context of her earlier work at MoMA's retrospective." David Keeps was raised in Detroit and worked in New York publishing for 15 years before settling in Echo Park, Los Angeles, in a 1940s bungalow previously owned by the artists Lari Pittman and Roy Dowell. He is a regular contributor to the Los Angeles Times, Travel + Leisure, InStyle, New York magazine and the Hearst Design Group, and is a consulting producer on Bravo's "Property Envy." "I'm really looking forward to "Calder and Abstraction: From Avant-Garde to Iconic" at LACMA."
