I think it's one of most boring issues of L'Uomo Vogue I have ever bought, mainly because I have no idea who all these people are... But I will make some scans later today if anyone's interested.

I thought OBAMA was on the cover. Why the hell is the cover star lying down he looked like a supporting cast to Obama. Bad cover

 

[Fontastic]

I think he's the guy who did that Obama artwork... But the cover is bad... I realised it wasn't dedicated to Obama only after I got home

 

[Flashbang]

Aw thanks so much Fontastic!
The cover is very interesting...but I've no idea who are these people.
ETA: Except Obama!

 

[cottonmouth13]

Not a good cover.

I quite like it - the artist dominated by his artwork. It makes sense; everybody knows that image but nobody knows its creator - even from a commercial point of view it's common sense because if they just had a photo of Fairey nobody would really care. Making such a blaringly obvious association with his most well known work on his cover is practical, and also quite tongue-in-cheek I think. The only thing I don't like is the awful font there in the middle, it really doesn't work with the image as a whole.

Does L'Uomo Vogue have English translations for the articles like Casa Vogue does? The articles always seem so interesting.

and shephard fairey is a great idea for a cover subject. he's had an interesting year and he's a good guy.

Some of them does. Only the Jonathan Wateridge, Pappi Corsicato and Shepard Fairey articles does. I'll scan them tomorrow aswell.

I'll scan it tomorrow, alongside Emanuele Filiberto's and Marina Abramovic's.

 

[LegBaby]

Thanks for the scans Fontastic! Wish I could find this magazine where I am...

 

[fashionismydrug]

I went to Fairey's exhibit at the ICA in Boston earlier this year and his work is quite amazing (if street art is your thing). He's been around for a while and has had an amazing career and I'm glad to see him sharing the cover with one of his most controversial pieces of art.

as much as i want to get into l'uomo vogue, its just not interesting to me. this isnt even intended on being a fashion magazine- is it relevant enough to be included amongst TFS? or are we just putting it here because of the 'vogue' referrence?

I created this thread because someone asked me to via PM seeing my post in the "recently received magazine" thread.

 

[DuTTyRoCK112]

Can you scan the Richard Meier photos? Thanks!

 

[Fontastic]

^ Scanning them as I type. I'll add them when I'm done scanning a few more things
