032c Issue #41 – Summer 2022

“But Is it Art? But Is it Legal? But Is it Legit?”

“Jesus” shoes filled with Holy Water. “Satan” ones filled with blood. An unauthorized Hermès / Birkenstock hybrid. Backed by venture capital and buffered by in-house legal counsel, MSCHF will lift your logo and sell it as their own—if you’re lucky. The 032c Issue #41 dossier is an insider’s guide to the New York collective conjuring mystique (and money) with trickster magic. Elsewhere, NAN GOLDIN and DURGA CHEW-BOSE trace the limitless lines of JULIE MEHRETU, whose fellow painter JULIAN SCHNABEL lets SVEN MICHAELSEN into his (mostly outdoor) inner sanctum. THOMAS JEPPE uncovers the Ballardian base layers of painter SERGIO SARRI, caught in Paris by PIERRE-ANGE CARLOTTI, and MAHFUZ SULTAN travels the vaporous world of DILLER SCOFIDIO + RENFRO, the architectural powerhouse blurring the boundaries and buildings of cultural space. MAX DAX assembles an oral history of HARD WAX, the Kreuzberg record store making Berlin the European epicenter of techno since 1989. Across the Atlantic, DALLAS is an unlikely blueprint for urban futures, distilled in 41 points by ZAC CRAIN. LOURDES “LOLA” LEON is fire and ice for ANGELO DOMINIC SESTO. RAS BARTRAM makes his 032c fashion director debut with four editorials, outfitting MONA TOUGAARD under big skies for JACKIE NICKERSON, tying knots with KRISTINA NAGEL, playing house with GOI MANASE for SZILVESTER MAKÓ, and channeling the northern lights with FREDERRIKE SOFIE for CASPER SEJERSEN.

PLUS: curator Agnes Gryczkowska, YouTube streamers HÖR, racecar driver Laura-Marie Geissler, honorary Texan Carolina Alvarez-Mathies, and NOLA Mardi Gras chief Bo Dollis Jr. gather in SOCIÉTÉ de 032c; the X-FILES introduces the cyborgs, shamans, mystics, and magicians of the expanded 032c.com universe; and, as always, we outro the issue with the BERLIN REVIEW, surveying our favorite reads of the literary season.

032c Issue #38 — Winter 2020/2021: “20 Years”

SUPREME founder James Jebbia called 032c “the last truly great culture magazine.” 032c Issue #38 celebrates the first two decades with a 28-page fold-out chronicling our evolution from DIY Berlin to the world of ready-to-wear, featuring commentary and a timeline of global 21st century cultural production by tech and media arbiter NEW MODELS, a visual audit by VIRGIL ABLOH, and a message from ANNA WINTOUR. Gemini legend and 2020 chart-slayer GUNNA incarnates rap’s mythological hero of the year. MAHFUZ SULTAN and ARI MARCOPOULOS unearth MICHAEL HEIZER’s secret desert sanctum. ROB HARDY, cinematographer of the “inexorable” behind the visual landscapes of Ex Machina, Annihilation, and Devs, shows SHUMON BASAR what the future looks like now. A newly repatriated, chain-smoking DAVID HOCKNEY gives dubious health advice to SVEN MICHAELSEN – then SVEN MICHAELSEN heads for the (Waldhaus) Sils to learn hospitality from hotel maestro URS KIENBERGER. Theories of automation, labor, and the self take an intimate turn when MCKENZIE WARK Zooms SUSAN BENNETT, the original voice of Siri. At Bottega Veneta, DANIEL LEE bears all – and flourishes. ADRIANO SACK talks Kraftwerk, Kippenberger, and West Berlin with CLAUDIA SKODA, fashion’s unsung knitwear queen. Photo-based artist DEANA LAWSON shares images that once evaded public view, having landed instead on her cutting room floor. “Slowed and Throwed” icon DJ SCREW proves magnificent and immortal – in Houston, and around the globe. JACK SELF tours MATTHEW M. WILLIAMS’ new abode: the house of Givenchy. Diamond-bejeweled Italian stream-screen sensation ALICE PAGANI leads LUKAS WASSMANN through an art-rich Roman Palazzo. Leading light of NY theater JEREMY O.HARRIS holds the stage at a mannerist Schloss in Austria for a BRUNO STAUB and MARC GOEHRING production. Elsewhere on the old continent, HUGO COMTE casts KRIS GRIKAITE in a Parisian roman-à-clef.

Plus: Société de 032c presents PROGNOSTIQUE DES TEMPS MODERNES with pop star Dua Lipa, menswear bromatics Jerry Lorenzo and Alessandro Sartori, artworld emulsifier Aria Dean, man in Milan Francesco Vezzoli, Twitter nihilist Nolen Gertz, distiller Max Luz, and musical futurist Gaika.
