"DRAINED"

Lord forgive me, for I have Drained.

The 032c Issue #42 dossier penetrates the fortress of avant-garde boyband slash Swedish rap collective DRAIN GANG, palace of BLADEE, ECCO2K, THAIBOY DIGITAL, and WHITEARMOR. CASSIDY GEORGE scales the Witchtower to decipher Drain Gang’s auto-tuned iconology, and decode a lexicon looted from the Reddit abyss.

On a separate odyssey, KIM KARDASHIAN escapes Hollywood with COLLIER SCHORR and RAS BARTRAM to a realm cohabited by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, the Brothers Grimm, and a miniature replica of herself. HUNTER SCHAFER shows JASON NOCITO and JORDAN RICHMAN how to take control of the storyline, and ANSELM KIEFER welcomes JUERGEN TELLER and SVEN MICHAELSEN into his world built from the rubble of empire. Berlin rap prince UFO361 gives MATT LAMBERT and SASCHA EHLERT a tour of the nine circles of Kreuzberg, and 070 SHAKE disappears into a pyrotechnic fog for ERIC JOHNSON, sharing her nesting doll theory of the universe with SAMUEL HYLAND. Cinematic sage WERNER HERZOG commands PETER KÖRTE – and the rest of us – to bring the world to its knees, and SHUMON BASAR eulogizes his life-long spiritual guide: JEAN-LUC GODARD. Out in cyberspace, video game creator HIDEO KOJIMA 3D-scans ERROLSON HUGH, then casts him as a player in a bespoke virtual sandbox. The infinitely Parisian PIERRE-ANGE CARLOTTI takes us to the oasis in BIR HAKEIM and ZAC BAYLY steps Vuitton through the looking glass in Oceania.

PLUS: Showjumper Dani Waldman, queen of the micro-track PinkPantheress, stylist Peri Rosenzweig, and professional corner cutter Julia Kraeplin join the club in SOCIÉTÉ de 032c; Jon Rafman, Bstroy, Irak, Peter Do, Oana Stănescu, Cactus Store Collective, and Ludovic de Saint Sernin reopen the XFILES of the 032c.com universe; and, as always, the BERLIN REVIEW says goodnight with our favorite storybooks of the season.

 


032c is a bi-annual contemporary culture magazine at the intersections of fashion, art and politics. Finding the new in the old and the old in the new, 032c invites leading and emerging creatives to collaborate on mono- thematic issues. It has been considered to be “dedicated to the celebration of ideas” by i-D, “revue ultra-pointue” by French Vogue, or simply as “the Berlin magazine that propogates an aesthetic of brutal elegance” by Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. “The magazine fuses art and architecture, literature, urban studies and fashion in ways”, states New York Times, “that can make one forget how depressing a visit to a newsstand has become.” 032c is internationally distributed to selected art bookstores, fashion boutiques and newsstands. The magazine has been exhibited at places such as London Design Museum, Colette (Paris), GAS (Tokyo), The Pineal Eye (London) and the 3rd Berlin Biennial.

032c is a media and fashion company for the 21st century. Founded by Joerg Koch in 2000, 032c began as a magazine in Berlin. Now the brand also creates ready-to-wear collections and community-catalysing experiences on a global scale. The mission of every 032c production is to inform, provoke, and activate the imagination. The 032c universe is a place for freedom, research, and creativity, where fantasy is reality, aspiration is attainment, and everything is culture in the making. And, like any universe, 032c is expanding.
