PRINT

Print, a Quarterly Journal of the Graphic Arts, was first launched in 1940 as a limited edition magazine and has since evolved into a bimonthly publication focused on visual culture and design. In its present form, Print explores and critiques various aspects of commercial, social, and environmental design. It highlights the good, such as the innovative graphics transforming New York’s public-school libraries; the bad, like Tylenol’s poorly received ad campaign aimed at hipsters; and the ugly, including Russia's use of Soviet imagery to market sausage and real estate. This general-interest magazine features articles from cultural journalists and critics who analyze design within its social, political, and historical frameworks. Covering a wide range of topics—from newspapers and book covers to online motion graphics, corporate branding, indie-rock posters, exhibitions, cars, and monuments—Print helps its audience of designers, art directors, illustrators, photographers, educators, students, and pop culture fans understand how our environment is shaped and why its appearance is significant. Notably, Print underwent a comprehensive redesign in 2005.

Finding Calm in Creative Storms – PRINT Magazine

This industry perspective is by designer and author Radim Malinic. Over a decade ago, I was on a plane from London to Bali. I’d been awake for 24 hours. Giddy and excited, I was off to surf the biggest waves of my life. When I finally arrived, I should have done what every sensible person does after a 7,800-mile jaunt: go lie down. Instead, I rushed to the beach. There it was: the Indonesian Ocean. Waves every bit as high as I’d hoped.

I'm Wondering: Have You Ever Forgiven Anyone? – PRINT Magazine

This past Sunday, the marathon ran through the front window of our house. Sweat silvers every person’s shoulders, and there are so many ways to run. Some run with gravity in their heels, seats sit back and low. Others tilt so far forward that it is as if they are falling into gravity. Tutus, and short-shorts, one man in a full zoot suit. Another man skateboards by, part of the marathon but given his own lane. His arms and legs have been amputated, so he pushes at the street with his residual limb-leg.
