Mono.Kultur #38 Gus Van Sant

Each issue of mono.kultur is dedicated to one interview with a creative type. The dimensions remain the same every time, but the design and finishing is completely rethought to reflect the issues’s subject.

Issue 38 - Gus Van Sant. Im Limbo

“I’m not actually involved, but I’m observing.”

Gus van Sant’s cinema is a steady flow in time, as if it were encountering stories, characters, landscapes by chance. People and places and lives that float into the sight of the camera, attracting its attention for long enough to commit them to film before moving ever onward. Known for films including Drugstore Cowboy and My Own Private Idaho to more popular dramas such as Good Will Hunting and Finding Forrester, Van Sant is one of the only filmmakers to work within and without Hollywood, his dreamlike films cutting their own swathe through the cultural ether. The latest edition of celebrated Berlin interview magazine mono.kultur traces his oeuvre and approach at length.

44 pages, 15 x 20 cm, softcover, mono.kultur (Berlin).
