Juxtapoz Magazine

Vi har tidligere skrevet om Juxtapoz Magazine sin Tattoo special.

Nå er magasinet også tilgjengelig i Norge. Siste issue vi har lest (Januar 2009) har en lang artikkel om WK Interact, pluss features på Jeremyville, Marok fra lodown og Ian Francis +++. Selv om designet henger litt etter (2002?) er det mye interresant lesestoff. Juxtapoz kan ses på som amerikanernes svar på ModArt.

Juxtapoz Art & Culture Magazine (pronounced Jucks-tah-pozz) is a magazine created in 1994 by a group of artists and collectors including Robert Williams[1], C.R. Stecyk, Greg Escalante and others to both help define and celebrate urban contemporary art. It is published by High Speed Productions, the same company who publishes Thrasher Skateboard magazine in San Francisco, California.

It reflects Williams’ own sensibility — a combination of California “Big Daddy” Ed Roth-style pop surrealism (identified by some as synonymous with low brow art and others as its own genre, as detailed in low brow art entry)[2] and the serious figurative craftsmanship that is more likely to be found among illustrators than fine artists today.
