NOTES FOR DOCUMENTA 13

Documenta, the global mega-exhibition mounted once every five years in the town of Kassel, Germany, is scheduled to open its 13th iteration on June 9, 2012, and the organizers of the show aren’t waiting till the last minute.
Bettina Funcke, former editor at the Dia Art Foundation and Parkett art journal, has been appointed head of publications for Documenta 13.

Her first task is to assemble, via the publisher Hatje Cantz, 100 Notes - 100 Thoughts, a series of notebooks with wide-ranging contributions designed "to explore how thinking emerges and lies at the heart of the active exercise of re-imagining the world." The publication is considered to be part of the exhibition.
