FLASH ART #Volumes 003 Opacity

Flash Art is a leading contemporary art magazine and publishing platform founded in 1967 by Giancarlo Politi in Rome, Italy. Now based in Milan, it is published quarterly in two editions: Flash Art International (in English) and Flash Art Italia (in Italian), and annually as Flash Art Volumes. Known for its critical engagement with the art world, the magazine has played a pivotal role in documenting and shaping contemporary art movements globally.

For its third edition, Flash Art Volumes 003 “Opacity,” to be released on the occasion of Milan Design Week 2026, the subject at hand is transparency and the necessity, or superfluity, of this quality. The issue’s covers feature Roni Horn, shot by Jeff Henrikson in the artist’s New York studio; Rose Wylie, photographed by Zora Sicher, following her show at the Royal Academy, London; and a photo essay by Jack Bool accompanied by guest editor Luis Ortega Govela’s essay “Fuck Transparency.”
