Rob Kulisek in Arcane 4
Text by Juliette Desorgues
@rob_kulisek@juliettedesorgues
New York–based artist Rob Kulisek conceives of the image less as a motionless medium than as a site of refusal to be fixed. Working primarily with photography, his practice shifts fluidly between fashion and art, and across forms, where human bodies, animals, and objects appear with charged immediacy.

Andrea Fourchy in Arcane 4
An interview by Antoine Clauss
@andreafourchycatfish@antoine_clauss
We met Andrea Fourchy in her studio in Long Island City. An area that sits at a liminal edge, freight tracks, old factories and emerging family-friendly neighborhood. A place that seems constantly in the making between these disparate elements, maybe the proper spirit to introduce Andrea Fourchy’s work.
Born in 1990 and a UC Davis graduate, she has exhibited at Lomex in New York (Girlfriends, No Head) and at Société in Berlin (Bachelors). Her paintings often explore the unstable relations between bodies and objects, beings and architectures, spaces where figures, forms, and surfaces overlap and contaminate one another.

Lorenzo Amos in Arcane 4
An interview by Adam Zhu
With guest Talal Abillama
'Lorenzo’s world resonates with my own. An East Village kid like myself, his work evokes a romanticized life - a brick walled tenement, a white wood floor studio, walls covered with gestures and doodles from cleaning his brushes, a revolving cast of characters fill the space. It wasn’t long after we met our worlds intertwined. I always visit Lorenzo at sunset, he prefers that time because the way the light fills his studio. Being in his studio with newly finished large paintings, an air of anticipation and excitement filled the room. Sitting with Talal, we quickly reflected on what we had all come together to accomplish so far and what was to come.'

Michel Auder in Arcane 4
An interview by Pierre-Alexandre Mateos
Michel Auder is a major figure in experimental video and contemporary art, whose work spans several decades and artistic movements. From the 1960s, he became known as a meticulous documentarian of the New York underground, notably capturing the life surrounding Andy Warhol and the Factory collective. His films and videos blend improvisation, intimate proximity with his subjects, and a keen sensitivity to the temporality and rhythm of everyday life.
A pioneering artist in the use of video as a narrative and aesthetic medium, Auder explored editing, re-editing, and video scanning to create hybrid works situated between documentary, diary, and filmed performance. In the 1970s and 1980s, he collaborated with iconic figures of the New York artistic and literary scene—such as Cookie Mueller, Taylor Mead, and Gary Indiana, giving his films a collective, almost choral dimension.
At the same time, Auder became a master of video installation, experimenting with spatial arrangements and the relationship between image and viewer, while maintaining his focus on intimacy and daily life. His work is a valuable testimony to American underground culture and its transformations, offering a sensitive and critical perspective on the passage of time, social uses of media, and the fragility of collective memory.
In this conversation, we revisit his major works and the artistic reality of an artist who successfully combined experimental rigor, documentary insight, and personal sensibility, becoming an essential icon of video art and the underground.

In “Jacqueline Humphries, Look Infinitely,” Guillaume Oranger traces how Jacqueline Humphries stages painting as a site of sustained contradiction—where abstraction, digital language, and embodied looking collide without resolution.
Originally published in Arcane (@arcane_press ) Issue 4, the essay reads Humphries’ work not as a verdict on painting’s fate, but as an ongoing test of its capacity to hold doubt, duration, and multiplicity.
“Jacqueline Humphries” is on view through April 5, 2026.
