Kinfolk 60 -

Descriere

In Issue Sixty, Kinfolk looks to the past. nHistory functions as a cultural and political undercurrent, and we consider how it informs the stories nations tell about themselves, the identities individuals construct and the structures of power that societies accept. Across the issue, we hear from leading voices who are reinterpreting the past and shaping how the present is understood. n nIn London, we spend a morning with Nicholas Cullinan, director of the British Museum, who reflects on the challenge of stewarding the institution in an era increasingly defined by questions of restitution and accountability. In New York, Nikole Hannah-Jones--the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist behind the 1619 Project--explains why revisiting foundational national narratives remains urgent today, while in Paris, writer Daphnée Denis examines the politics of remembering figures precisely because they were forgotten. Elsewhere, we meet David Chipperfield, the seminal architect known for his sensitive work with historic buildings. n nWe also visit a series of homes, each with a history of its own: in Helsinki, the atelier apartment of artist Tove Jansson; in Los Angeles, the glamorous midcentury properties restored by design studio Ome Dezin, and Flamingo Estate, Richard Christiansen's botanical pleasureland. n nSince 2011, Kinfolk has set the standard for independent publishing in art, design, aesthetics, architecture, homes and interiors. Our quarterly lifestyle magazine is sold in over 100 countries, published in three languages and makes the perfect coffee table magazine or gift for a creative. Featuring inspiring photography, fashion and style, as well as examinations of slow living, Kinfolk is an art and design publication that seeks to promote quality of life and connect a community of creative thinkers.n
