Acclaim Magazine Issue 23 out now!!!!

New York City is one of the most vibrant and creative cities in the world. Countless great creative minds and talents have been born through this city throughout history. Today the legacy that New York has contributed to street culture remains indisputable. Maybe it’s the Big Apple’s unrelenting toughness that allows only the cream to rise to the top, or perhaps it’s the way in which creatives from all world are drawn to the city, which has formed a community that fosters those who create. Either way, the city is a cultural force to be reckoned with.

Issue 23 of ACCLAIM is dedicated to New York. 2010 saw us uncover the people, places and trends at the core of contemporary Tokyo with our Japan issue, our NYC issue sees us deliver likewise. On-location interviews and shoots capture the frenetic bright-lights-big-city attraction of the city, while intimate content crafted by iconic NYC natives themselves, make the issue also reflective of NYC from the inside, from those who live and breathe it and whom have contributed directly to its culture.

Someday Store Melbourne

We don’t know why Melbourne gets all the good stuff.  Recently Someday Store underwent a renovation project.  Still using the “treehouse” effect with wooden beams and flooring, adding a 2metre glass display cabinet, a brand new counter, giving the store a more open feeling.  Someday has also revamped its inventory stocking more high end brands alongside the labels they already carry.

The Empty Exhibition

Australia’s cult art magazine announces The Empty Exhibition, a group show to celebrate the launch of the 20th Issue of Empty magazine.

Started in 2004, Empty magazine quickly became one of Australia’s most popular art and design publications. Current Empty editor, and publisher, Andrew Johnstone created the magazine after many years of frustration at the lack of interesting art and design magazines being published in Australia… “I was just sick of magazines that called themselves ‘art’ or ‘design’ mags and yet only had a handful of pages that had art on them. Just full of ads and boring articles. Mindless analysis of ‘design issues’, and product reviews to keep their advertisers happy, that sort of thing. They were, and some still are, catalogues, not magazines” Rather than just continuing to complain, Johnstone started Empty and has spent the last twenty issues working to create a magazine unique for its content and lack of advertising.  With the release of it’s upcoming 20th Issue, the Empty crew decided they’d like to organise a group exhibition, a perfect way to showcase some of the talented artists that have been shown in Empty.

This, says Johnstone, was not as easy as it sounds… “We’ve had hundreds of artists in the magazine over the years so trying to pick who to ask to exhibit was not only very exciting, but also quite frustrating as we knew that we had limited space and so could not ask too many” The artists selected reflect the diversity of styles that are published in the magazine. From photo realistic paintings, to surrealism, street art and documentary photography, The Empty Exhibition will showcase a broad range of works from Erik Sandberg, Meggs, Nic Plowman, Beastman, Aaron Nagel, Andrew Quilty, Karim Hamid, Tamara Dean, Christian Rex Van Minnen and David Kassan.

The Empty Exhibition kicks off on 14 April at aMBUSH Gallery and then moves north to open at the National Grid Gallery on 29 April. Two exciting openings at galleries well known for their support of young and talented artists and collectives.
