First Edition. 31 BLUE Visionaire fashion magazine. 25 posters.Visionaire claims it fulfills two dreams: to make an issue of large-format, poster-size images and to sew the issue into a custom-made garment, in this case, a limited-edition Levi�s turn-of-the-century One-Pocket Sack Coat. Sponsored by Levi's, much of the artwork focuses on Americana. Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin photographed Shalom in an American-flag T-shirt. Richard Phillips overlaid a 1970s-style smiley face on a detailed drawing of a sneering girl. Marcus Piggott and Mert Alas treated us to an iconic close-up of Kate Moss wearing a Levi�s collar piece reconstructed to read �Levi�s.�� More contributions came from Fabien Baron, Greg Foley and Orfi, David Armstrong, Nan Goldin, and Gary Hume. Posters housed in a printed cardboard box sewn into a denim waistcoat, illustrated in color. "With Blue we fulfilled two dreams: to make an issue of large-format, poster-size images and to sew the issue into a custom-made garment, in this case, a limited-edition Levi's turn-of-the-century One-Pocket Sack Coat. With Levi's as the sponsor and blue as the theme, much of the artwork focused on Americana. Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin photographed Shalom Harlow in an American-flag T-shirt. Richard Phillips overlaid a 1970s-style smiley face on a detailed drawing of a sneering girl. Marcus Piggott and Mert Alas treated us to an iconic close-up of Kate Moss wearing a blue collar piece reconstructed to read Levi's, Gus Van Sant shot a blue-eyed albino couple from his upcoming film project, and Justine Kurland provided her dystopic view of suburbia.
