Middle Plane is quietly establishing itself as one of the most interesting art journals around.
Published biannually, each issue harnesses the input from different creatives to examine and explore the relationship between art and fashion by focusing on a single artist for each issue, most recently Maggie Hambling and Christo and Jeanne-Claude.
The results, the publishers hope, are 'unpredictable, critical and eerie'.
Middle Plane's sixth issue is a collaboration with Japanese artist Yoshitomo Nara. It explores the rarely seen personal side of Nara's practice, as well as the recurring theme of children and the powerful influence they have had on his work. Contributors also examine the cultural identity of Japan, its creative DNA, its environment, its people and its unique fashion scene.
