Celebrating twenty years of an agenda-setting powerhouse of contemporary style, design, and popular culture. Celebrated for discovering and promoting new artists, musicians, designers, and filmmakers, Dazed & Confused magazine has been a barometer of popular style and culture since its founding in London in 1991 by Jefferson Hack and the photographer Rankin. Quickly renowned for its controversial attitude, Dazed represented a new wave in the British style press, bringing together figures from different creative fields and eras to produce extraordinary interviews and develop artwork for the magazine. From David Bowie to Bjork, Harmony Korine to David Lynch, Kate Moss to Stockhausen, and Rankin to Thom Yorke, the roster of the magazine's subjects and contributing artists alone is a record of the evolution of contemporary pop culture. Edited by its founders, this daringly illustrated book immortalizes the magazine's most enduring features, from legendary photo shoots and iconic covers to controversial interviews, and supplements them with outtakes, ephemera from the editors' offices, original artwork, and contributions from the photographers, designers, and artists behind it all.

Dazed and Confused

The second in a series of collectable books that rediscovers the ambitious photographic archives of AnOther Magazine, one of the world's most influential fashion magazines. Few if any modern magazines have a collection of celebrity portraits as powerful and intriguing as AnOther Magazine. Its famous covers, shot by the world's leading fashion photographers, capture Hollywood's most iconic women - Nicole Kidman, Jodie Foster, Gwyneth Paltrow to name a few - in ways they have never been seen before. But the original portraits here venture far beyond the world of film - Björk, Lucian Freud, Patti Smith, Marianne Faithful, Jude Law and Kate Moss are just a few of the cultural icons that have appeared in the magazine in its ten-year history. Another Portrait Book follows Another Fashion Book and will be followed by Another Art Book in spring 2010.

For more than twenty years, Jefferson Hack has pioneered the idea of magazines as communities. He is responsible for several of the most enduring fashion and pop culture publications, including Dazed and Confused, founded in 1991, AnOther Magazine, and Another Man. Edited by Hack himself, this book will include multiple voices from visionaries such as Hans Ulrich Obrist, Bjork, and Tilda Swinton, original works from his magazines, digital projects, stills from experiential exhibitions, and collaborative film, television, and photography projects masterminded with such cultural provocateurs as Rankin, Kate Moss, U2, and Thom Yorke. This insightful book reveals Hack's avant-garde and collaborative working method, illustrating how a transdisciplinary approach can break the conventional mold of a magazine into a modern experience that extends into the realm of film, websites, exhibitions, and beyond. 'We can't do this alone' seeks to share methodologies and inspire creatives to challenge the boundaries of how we perceive culture, suggesting anti-formula processes that can be adopted to define what the future of publishing and communication may look like in the fast evolving media landscape of the twenty-first century.
