It’s hard to reflect on the past year without feeling like we’ve entered a fictional tale. And yet here we are: not only has COVID-19 taken root around the world, but wildfires have raged across the Arctic Circle, Brazil, Australia, and the western United States; people have risen up to stand against racial injustice, and it feels as though we're witnessing only the beginning of a deep fracturing of this civilization. We do not yet know the changes that will come to light locally and globally.

Volume II of our print edition speaks to the multiple crises and opportunities unfolding around us: plague, extinctions, and loneliness grip us ever tighter even as they affirm our connection with the living world. Across 400 pages—and through essays, photography, adapted multimedia, poems, and original artwork—this collection considers the stories that we want to seed in these mythological times. Contributors include Pulitzer prize winners and finalists Forrest Gander, Richard Powers, Elizabeth Rush, David Haskell, and Linda Hogan; acclaimed writers, poets, and artists Robert Macfarlane, Camille T. Dungy, Jake Skeets, Brenda Hillman, Katie Holten, Sheila Pree Bright, Paul Kingsnorth, and many others.

Frankie – issue 99

we hope you’ve been doing some push-ups and squats (or at least have a forklift handy), because issue 99 is out in the world today, and it sure is a biggun. tucked inside our summer bumper issue you’ll find a set of four postcards designed by fotini tikkou, a make-it-yourself pennant kit featuring fun art from luke john matthew arnold, and of course, our humongous annual wall planner (hooray! smell you later, 2020!). then there’s all the rest: a chat with some lovely neighbours who share more than just a fleeting wave, and a guide to taking a roadtrip without blowing the bank or breaking down in the middle of woop woop. we delve into the science behind the feeling of hanger and meet a local lady having fun with eye make-up (spoiler: it involves one of your favourite childhood cereals). you’ll take a trip through some of australia’s raddest art deco pubs, be encouraged to make a mess while making art, and meet a few embroidery whizzes doing their own thing with a needle and thread. plus, there’s all the usual eye-catching visuals and chuckle-inducing real-life musings.

In Issue 03, we explore the dreamy landscapes of Jordan, the coastal fortress of La Muralla Roja, a serene and nurturing retreat into the mountains of Hong Kong, and wayfinding in a liveable city, Copenhagen. This issue not only contains some of our own travel stories, but we also focused on the dialogues that we had with various artists, designers, architects, business owners, etc., from all around the world. Apart from sharing some of their inspiring work, we also had the opportunity to learn more about their perspective on the city in which they live in and their future plans post COVID. We spoke to Kamaro’an of Taiwan, NIMU of Italy, YOHAK DESIGN STUDIO of Japan, Le Labo of the United States, AOIRO of Germany, LAAB and WOOL of Hong Kong, Atelier Cph and Birgitte Due Madsen of Denmark.

Foam Magazine #58: Talent

The fifteenth edition of Foam Magazine’s Talent Issue presents a selection of outstanding artists, each in their own way feeling the pulse of our times. In spite of the many challenges humankind was confronted with in 2020, we counted the highest number of submissions yet: 1803 entries, from 72 countries - each of which represented a message in a bottle from different parts of the world, which felt more fractured than ever. This year’s common, underlying theme is a close, sharp look at one of the most important subjects, the human condition. While being born out of the Covid-19 pandemic, this issue is also a beautiful, hopeful and refreshing statement of the possibilities our medium offers, and the exciting future ahead. We look forward to celebrating new beginnings, and new horizons.

Next to our regular features we are extremely grateful to host a conversation between Carmen Winant and Laia Abril, winner of the 2020 Paul Huf Award Prize with her long-term project A History of Misogyny. The presented chapters, Chapter One: On Abortion and Chapter Two: On Rape have been unanimously selected by the jury as a remarkable example of the possibilities for the photographic medium to engage with complex subjects. We agree that the results of her efforts need to be seen by an audience as large as possible and are very proud to be able to make our part.

PRIMARY PAPER is a biannual print magazine. Each issue contributors offer their unique perspective on a single topic that is culturally significant and artistically relevant. The fourth issue of PRIMARY looks deeply at the theme of ‘Human’. What is it that makes us feel human? Feel natural? Feel a part of humankind? Human instincts and behaviours. What is the essence of humanity? People, places, cultures, true connections. How does our community influence us creatively?

After the unforgettable year of 2020, PRIMARY reflects on the challenges that were faced collectively, as the whole world changed together, celebrating the strengths and vulnerabilities of human resilience in these uncertain times. The desire for this issue was to offer contributors some inspiration, maybe an opportunity to create differently, a chance to revisit old archives or even just provide some sense of community in surreal times.

Some highlights of the issue include—

• A study of tradition focusing on the harvest festival of Chuseok in South Korea by Andrew Jacobs and stylist Herin Choi.

• A photo series by Mathieu Richer Mamousse that captures the unique cultural rituals of the Kukeri.

• An abstract collaboration between Ana Cuba, Rebecca Scheinberg, Lune Kuipers, Maisie Skidmore, Sharda Fähmel and Macarena Rodriguez Pinto, that references the power of female relationships and how these relationships touch and enrich our lives.

• A portrait series by Felicity Ingram celebrating the female in all its forms.

• An editorial in which Hyun Woo Min uses plastic scraps from the beaches of Taean, South Korea to create a playful display of Beach Warriors.

SKATEISM Issue  6 – An educational issue about race.

2020 is almost over, a very challenging and eye-opening year for everyone. After seeing the BLM protests and uprisings and witnessing some people’s true colours, we wanted to use our platform to share the incredible stories of 9 skaters of color growing up in different parts of the world, their experiences, as well as their thoughts on the BLM movement. Dr. Neftalie Williams was the person that we thought would be the ideal guest editor for this issue, as he has been exploring race and diversity in skateboarding for many years now. With no restrictions or agenda, he had deep conversations with people such as Mike John, Nassim Guammaz, Khule Ngubane, Jaime Reyes, Maicol Cortez, Sal Barbier, Seu Trinh, Samarria Brevard and Thomas Teixeira.

We are hoping that this is only the beginning of a much bigger discussion, and that we continue to educate ourselves, as well as our readers through our shared passion for skateboarding.

Süddeutschland, das gibt es überhaupt nicht. Nicht als zusammenhängende Landschaft. Nicht als Einheit. Zu sehr zerrten die einstigen europäischen Großmächte über die Badener, Schwaben und Bayern hinweg, als dass man Zeit gehabt hätte, sich zusammenzuraufen. Oder gar eine gemeinsame Identität auszuknobeln. Wer quer durchs Land unterwegs ist, wird verblüfft sein über die manifesten Unterschiede. Sprache und Kultur, Essen und Religion, Temperamente und Wertekataloge sind äußerst vielfältig. Die ehemals kleinen Fürstentümer, die den Südwesten Deutschlands zu einem unüberschaubaren Flickenteppich machten – sie sind immer noch präsent. Das von Adeligen vererbte und vom Klerus verschacherte Land Badens und Württembergs ist kleinteilig, es gibt keine klare, große Geschichte, nur sehr viele kleine Geschichten. Ganz anders verhält es sich beim bayrischen Südosten, der historisch in einer Hand war und dem man dies auch heute noch durch eine durchgehende Grundstimmung abspürt. – All das macht Süddeutschland ungemein reizvoll und spannend. Wer hier mit offenen Augen unterwegs ist, stolpert über dicht gepackte Vergangenheit, und er hat es mit einem Menschenschlag zu tun, der ein Spiegelbild dieser turbulenten und bewegten Geschichte ist.

Southern Germany actually doesn’t exist – at least not as one landscape. Not as one unit. The former great powers of Europe clawed at Baden, Swabia and Bavaria so much that the folk didn’t have time to rally themselves – or even to figure out a shared identity. Anyone traveling across the country will be amazed at the glaring differences – the extreme diversity of language and culture, cuisine and religion, temperaments and values. The former tiny principalities that made southwestern Germany a confusing patchwork still exist. Inherited from the nobility and bartered away by the clergy, the land of Baden and Württemberg was divvied up into small parcels. There is no one clear story, just a lot of chapters. The situation is completely different in Bavaria’s southeast, which was historically under one rule – a mood that still lingers today. All this makes Southern Germany extremely appealing and exciting. If you travel with your eyes wide open, you will stumble across a densely packed past and encounter a kind of people that reflects this turbulent and eventful history.

a Dance Mag #3 – Touch

Born during the year of global pandemic, confinement and social distancing, issue 03: Touch, brings us, paradoxically, stories of connection, transformation and healing.

The Touch issue recovers some of the powers of a sense that has become restrained.

READ IN THE TOUCH ISSUE:

• ­­A Singaporean artist connects with Tatsumi Hijikata from beyond the grave

• A Lycanthrope turns into a Manta Ray, a story of metamorphosis

• Connecting during quarantine, with TikTok

• Touching Palestine in a contemporary art center in Dubai

• A Norwegian cartel redefines modern-day manhood

• Dr. Aline LePierre talks about the healing power of touch
