Alphabet

The first issue of the Alphabet magazine , launched by Donatien Grau and Thomas Lenthal, positions itself as a unique platform for artists from various disciplines to showcase their creative work. This biannual publication distinguishes itself from traditional art magazines by prioritizing the voices of the artists themselves, offering them significant editorial control. Each contribution is treated as a standalone work, reflecting the individual style and perspective of the contributors.

This inaugural issue features a variety of content, including an article by model Naomi Campbell on the cultural renaissance in Africa, a visual exploration of worship by photographer Juergen Teller, a poem by writer Ian McEwan, and a tutorial on how to make a kitchen faucet by designer Marc Newson. The cover is designed by renowned director Robert Wilson, emphasizing the artistic essence of the magazine.
