Read Our Exclusive Interview Of Legendary Fashion Photographer Peter Lindbergh On The Occasion of His New Book And Exhibition →
When you think of famous fashion photographers, a few names come to mind: Helmut Newton, Guy Bourdin, Mario Testino and perhaps Herb Ritts. There is another name, however, that is just as iconic: Peter Lindbergh. You could say that Lindbergh’s work ushered in a new aesthetic paradigm for the pages of glossy magazines. His images of Christy Turlington, Tatjana Patitz, Cindy Crawford, Kate Moss, Karen Alexander, among others, turned them into supermodels. Coinciding with his major retrospective at the Kunsthal in Rotterdam, Taschen has recently released a major career monograph with over four hundred photographs from his oeuvre. We caught up with Lindbergh at a recent signing in Beverly Hills to discuss his work and influences. Click here to read.

Paperwork NYC and Julia Fox Van Pop Up During New York Art Book Fair 2016
The lowkey van pop up was a tribute to all those who lost their lives this summer from gun violence, terrorism and drugs. I wanted to use the extra space on the van to pay homage to to all our fallen homies and people that we hear about every day in the news dying. Guns or drugs, our generation is killing itself. I used to be like that but I would like to live and make a difference. I'm donating the profits to a charity. I still don't know which one though. This van brought out a lot of emotion, people where crying over it and some girls even tried to start a fight over it. It was super turnt. Text by Julia Fox. Photographs by Alexander Richter

Courageous Writing For IRL Cowards: Novelist Matt Binder Chats With Novelist Clancy Martin On Making Bad Decisions and The Thin Veil of Fiction →
In 2012, shortly before I lost my mind and committed myself to writing fiction, I was sitting at a pal’s apartment in San Diego, waiting on him to shower and ready himself for a night out, when I picked up a copy of the Vice fiction issue. I flipped through the magazine’s pages looking for something of interest. A story titled “Whores I Have Loved” immediately resonated with me. I understood the sentiment completely. I read with ferocious curiosity as the writer sermonized on the dangers of falling in love with prostitutes in locations foreign and remote. Prior to reading the piece, I didn’t think it possible for a work to exist that was so honest, tender, and vulnerable about a subject so fraught with moral pitfalls. Click here to read more.
