Issue 21 – In Praise of Folly

In the 21st issue, we seek a boldness reminiscent of the words of Erasmus of Rotterdam, ‘In Praise of Folly’, the essay likening madness to the dawn of a new day, to the spark preceding the impulse to create. This insight accompanies us in Charlotte Taylor’s editorial at Side Gallery, Barcelona. It takes us to George Rouy’s genie in an English chapel. It is embodied by Laurence Leenaert’s world in Riad Rosemary, Marrakech, and keeps us mesmerized at Jorge Zalszupin’s and Marcos Acabaya’s houses in Brazil.
