CURRENCY is a mix of art history, culture, fashion and style.
Founded by art director and editor-at-large Sico Carlier, each issue of CURRENCY is designed differently and appears at irregular intervals to constitute ‘a document of the editor’s relationships and exchanges with advertisers, artists, designers, independent publishers and writers.’
The latest issue takes its point of departure from ‘Daydream of Security’, a text by the late art critic Guy Brett, a friend of Carlier. In his editorial letter, Carlier writes: ‘There are several dead people walking around in this magazine. When we consider the ones we have lost, we also try to remember who we are and what we represent.’ In this sense, the issue is guided by key cultural figures, including artists Eva Hesse and David Medalla.
