Tina Rivers Ryan introduces Artforum’s March 2025 issue

VISITORS TO THE Venice Biennale last year could hardly have missed the Golden Lion–winning installation Takapau by Mataaho Collective, a group of four Māori women from Aotearoa New Zealand who have been working together since 2012. A takapau is a Māori woven ceremonial mat; for their version at the Biennale, the group repurposed industrial tie-downs used in cargo transport to create weavings that bridged walls, dividing the room and creating patterns of light and shadow.

Tina Rivers Ryan Editor’s Letter February 2025

AS AN AMERICAN born in the early 1980s, I feel lucky to have grown up in Miami, where our national homophobia and transphobia seemingly were buried under the sandy shores of South Beach. The Miami of my adolescence was the Miami of The Birdcage, Versace, and Madonna, and at the time, the city felt like ground zero of a post-AIDS renaissance of unabashedly—though conspicuously white—queer culture.
Andrew Berardini on the Los Angeles fires

A critic reckons with the ravaging of Los AngelesTHE HOT WINDS BLEW OVER the mountain passes and the fires came with them. At first, people posted cute quotes by Didion and Chandler about the Santa Anas. Then they stopped. The ash rained. I kept refreshing the app on my phone that told me about the fires, checking the news anywhere I could get it. Information and misinformation, mid-catastrophe public mourning and off-putting blame flickered across screens while the city burned.
