ANPQuarterly Vol 1 / No 3

Eighteen pages on the very eighteen-page worthy Chris Johanson and Jo Jackson (with a selection of choice solo works from both alongside a group of new collaborative works made especially for the occasion of this feature, and two interviews with both of them); a very much-deserved review/survey on the life and work of the forever influential, yet under recognized artist Niki de Saint-Phalle; Allain Levitt shows us what he saw when he visited a Gent Of Desire at Stephen Powers’ Dream Land Artist Club this summer (Steve does the explaining); Matt Leines shows us step by step how he makes a painting; Sean Cliver talks about how he amassed one of the world’s greatest collections of skateboards, toys, books, etc; Eric Hatch talks personal history with Azita Youseffi (of Scissor Girls, Bride of No No, and Azita); Dave Schubert shows off what one might find trolling around the seedy underbelly of Planet Earth with a Leica or a Contax or a Polaroid or something that does a great job of capturing these finds; and we give some quick but much needed nods to our favorite other magazine, some of our favorite bookstores, galleries and our favorite record/skateboard/toy/record-label-HQ store.

 

ANPQuarterly is an arts magazine published by RVCA that focuses on a broader sense of art and community. The idea behind this endeavor is to make a magazine that will educate and inform openly and without the social or financial restrictions that plague many publications today. Our goal is not to focus on current events or “who’s hot” but rather to bring forward people and phenomena that deserve acknowledgment and coverage regardless of their place in time.
