Published twice a year since 2002, Encens is focused on fashion as artform from the perspective of designers rather than trends. The magazine investigate new forms of dressing from past to present with probing interviews, extensive use of photography and vintage, and dynamic layout. This issue features Willie Christie, Dominique Issermann, Sonia Rykiel, Aurore Clement, Wim Wenders, Margot Pilz, Barbara Hulanicki, Roger Vivier and Emanuel Ungaro.

Mark Borthwick belongs to a generation of photographers who, in the 1990s, changed fashion’s imagery. Breaking the conventions of fashion photography, he developed a style that was at once intuitive and personal, integrating elements, props, attitudes, that touch contemporary art, environmental issues, interior and architectural design, and a reverence for clothes as works of art.

Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Marian Zazeela: Drawings at Kunst im Regenbogenstadl, Polling, 2000. Over the past six decades, Zazeela was a central figure of the New York avant-garde. Her expansive practice encompassing painting, calligraphic drawing, film, light projection, stage design, sculpture, and light environments applied rigorous formal procedures to enact states of transcendence.

In 1962, Zazeela produced a series of highly singular drawings that charted the course of her subsequent work. Employing both improvisation and an increasing array of rigorous compositional techniques, Zazeela’s ornamental shapes render the page a concentrated visual field of startlingly complex design.
