Textur #2: Kelly Reichardt

TEXTUR (“Texture”) is a series of books started in 2019 with a publication about Angela Schanelec. The concept is to publish each book using different sources. In this way, we want to do justice to the diverse working methods of filmmakers, the talents of different authors, the range of influences that have an impact on all of them and invite unusual collaborations.TEXTUR #2 is dedicated to Kelly Reichardt, whose film FIRST COW, one of the great films of this year, will be shown as part of the Viennale. The volume contains an essay by the critic Jonathan Rosenbaum, an article by the filmmaker Jem Cohen about the passion that is inherent in the handiwork of this medium, two poems that were especially written for this publication by the poet Eileen Myles, a story by Maile Meloy, and numerous other written and visual contributions and interviews.
