“To people who are not artists, the idea of the artist and the place where they create can be so mysterious,” says Christopher Niquet, the Paris-based stylist, writer, and editor in chief of STUDY magazine. That was the thrust behind the latest issue of STUDY, a quarterly publication that focuses each issue on one single person, place, or theme. For the eleventh volume of the magazine, which officially launched back in 2022, Niquet tapped photographer and W contributor Jeff Henrikson to shoot the studios and workspaces of 11 New York City-based artists, including Joe Bradley, Joan Jonas, Nate Lowman, and Francesco Clemente (the latter’s cover, shown above, is part of a special-edition partnership with Saint Laurent; the exclusive Clemente cover will only be available for sale at Saint Laurent’s Rive Droite stores in Los Angeles, New York, and Paris).
