Description:
Over the last couple of years, we have made a conscious effort at Beautiful/Decay to put together each issue as if curating a group show. We first come up with a theme and
then spend many hours doing research, visiting studios, and looking at thousands of images to find the perfect grouping of creative minds from the art, design, music, and
fashion communities to complement that theme. Sometimes this task can present quite the challenge, but we always seem to put together an interesting group of interviews and
articles by some of the most stimulating and contemporary minds out there.
Consequently, I have kept a mental rolodex of artists whose works are engaging and fresh, but don’t necessarily fit one of our predetermined themes. For our first issue of
2007, we have decided to break our mold of a themed issue and instead are featuring a brilliant group of artists whose work stands on its own. Issue: R features a cornucopia of
artistic voices and practices, starting with our cover story on Zeloot, a talented young illustrator from the Netherlands who creates psychedelic art-inspired rock posters. From
there, we move to the rich Fire Training Facility photographs by Becky Brister, stencil work by John Fekner, the psychedelically meditative drawings of Mike Pare, the collaged
fabric work by Ai Kijima, private stock by Lyes, and the dramatically dark sculptures of Richard Stipl. Issue R is a hyperactive reflection of some of Beautiful/Decay’s
favorite artists connected solely by their collective resistance to a theme. 118 pages full color.
