Elephant #27

Elephant is a quarterly magazine about art and visual culture. Featuring up-to-the-minute visual material, fresh faces and original voices, the magazine covers and uncovers new trends and talent.The current art world is divided between the traditionally ‘proper’ realm and what is known as applied and commercial art. The most interesting work seems to be happening in the middle of the two: when photographers, architects, designers and creatives manage to transcend their initial brief and start thinking like artists. Elephant documents when and how artists wander outside the confines of the museum and gallery environment, becoming aware of trends and thinking like designers.Direct, sincere and multi-disciplinary, Elephant aims to have more depth and breadth than any other visual art magazine. It visits art and design studios, steps on graffiti artists’ toes, rides fixed-gear bikes, plays with new computer games, disturbs rehearsals and interrupts takes. The ‘elephant’ is always in the room.
