The 10th issue of FANTASTIC MAN is graced with Mr. EWAN McGREGOR on the cover, who can also be found inside. Other gentlemen featured in this issue are Swedish scientist and sword swallower Dr. HANS ROSLING, the make-up artist Mr. PETER PHILIPS of CHANEL, plus the vivid and exceptional journalist Mr. HAMISH BOWLES. These insightful profiles are mixed with an array of other curiosities, with topics ranging from steaks to pickpocketing and the options in coat hangers. The fashion in this issue is full of contemporary men looking amazing in an array of surprisingly formal suits, which feels super correct for the mood of the moment. Plus: an exclusive preview of THE GENTLEWOMAN, an upcoming new title from the makers of FANTASTIC MAN.
Publish and Be Damned Fair 2009
27 September 3pm-8pm
Oxford House, Derbyshire Street, Bethnal Green, E2 6HG
Publish and Be Damned are pleased to announce the 6th annual self-publishing fair which will take place at Oxford House in Bethnal Green on Sunday 27 September from 3pm-8pm. Surveying a wide range of independent local, national and international publishers of magazines, fanzines, journals, diaries and periodicals, Publish and Be Damned celebrates publishing as a creative and critical space for presenting artists’ work. As with previous years, the fair celebrates experimental approaches to making and distributing the work of artists, writers and musicians outside of the commercial mainstream. In addition we will have room dedicated to performances and talks throughout the afternoon.
This year’s fair also marks some new initiatives for Publish and Be Damned. Our recent participation in Subvision in Hamburg as well as the London fair are opportunities for us to collect content for the new publication ‘The Damned’ which will be distributed to all PABD members. The membership scheme, which has also been implemented this year, enables the creation of a forum or network between members that encourages the exchange of publications and participation in PABD’s events throughout the year. The funds received from the membership fees has also allowed us to hire a larger space than in previous years, enabling us to invite more participants as well as help fund the attendance of more international publishers.

As contribution to the event framework ’Survival Kit’ Egija Inzule (LV/CH) and Maja Wismer (CH) will curate an exhibition with and about books. Focusing on the double role of books within the field of art both as self-contained aesthetic entity and as a medium of information and discourse, a selection of exhibition catalogues, artists’ books and art theory publications will be displayed.
According to the concept of ’Survival Kit’ the books will be put on view in an empty shop in the city center of Riga, becoming a temporary bookshop, with most of the books also being for sale. Furthermore the exhibtion wishes to expand into a discursive platform: lectures, presentations and performances are scheduled. A special event will focus on the Latvian art book scene.
Among the invited guests are the curator and co-founder of the Berlin based art bookstore pro qm Axel John Wieder, the Stockholm based artists’ duo Goldin+Senneby, Alexis Zavialoff from Motto distribution, Flash Institut, estonian graphic designers Indrek Sirkel and Asterisk* – a mobile bookstore. In parallel to the exhibition Zürich based graphic designers Urs Lehni and Lex Trüb will hold a workshop with students of the graphic design department of the art school in Riga. The exhibition will also host ”The most beautiful Swiss Books 2008”.
In collaboration with the LCCA the exhibtion will host the book launch of the first Latvian translation of Theodor W. Adorno’s text ’Dialectic of Enlightenment’.
