THE VOYEUR ISSUE TRAILER – ISSUE NO. 3
XXXX Magazine breaks the mould of traditional publishing by creating a magazine that is a 3-dimensional experience for viewers.? Rather than reading an article or looking at still photographs, XXXX Magazine presents our content in motion as a multimedia experience. XXXX Magazine was created to promote collaborations between artists, showcasing the work of not just established names, but also emerging talent. Aside from our “virtual” online magazine, we showcase the work of our contributors in special events such as installations, screenings, exhibits and spontaneous ?happenings? on a regular basis in cites including New York, Paris and London.? Recent events include The Voyeur Exhibit at Art Basel Miami 2010, sponsored by The American Friends of the Louvre, Miami Art Museum and Quintessentially. In June 2010 XXXX Magazine presented a Video Art installation at the Soiree Au Louvre Benefit for the Louvre Museum in New York at the French Embassy, premiering the films from the second issue. In January/February 2010 Visionairs Gallery in Paris presented Carte Blanche, a multimedia exhibit featuring the productions from the ?Kaleidoscopic? Issue, as well as a preview of the ?Surreal? Issue. Other recent events include the Face Off / Dance Off at Norwood Art Club in New York, a fashion video Installation at Hotel Costes boite?Matignon, Paris during Paris Fashion Week March 2011. Look out for XXXX Magazine videos on The Big Screen Project, screening throughout 2011 in Chelsea, Manhattan.
What does XXXX stand for? There are several meanings behind the name?
XXXX is commonly used as a placeholder ? so you can later ?fill in the blank?, thus signifying that it can mean ?Anything?. ?It is also generally used to mean ?Untitled?, and thus is the ultimate symbol for ?creative freedom?. ??X? in mathematical terms means ?multiply?; if you think about ??multimedia? it stands for the multiplication of various medias, exponentially creating a progressive result in their unique combination. ? XXXX Magazine is about promoting collaboration between artists, multiplying the talents of one artist with the other to create new and exciting work beyond what one is capable of creating on their own. And lastly ?X? stands for ?kisses? as we sign off ?.
