They have transferred this ideal as guest curators of A Magazine in a volume that takes on a pronouncedly American vision. From its initial interview with the visionaries behind the label, the invocation of Abraham Lincoln and a rapturous appreciation of Donald Judd’s Marfa and Robert Smithson’s Spiral Jetty, this issue unfolds to eventually reveal a collection of provocative fashion portfolios. The issue is interspersed throughout with details drawn from the Proenza Schouler print collection and also includes articles by Simon Critchley and Frederick Turner along with a conversation with Bruce Weber.
