sleek magazin issue #53 spring 2017

SLEEK dedicates issue 53 to The New Revolutionaries, the previously politically apathetic generation that is now waking up across the worlds of art and fashion. Dissecting the current generation are our art and fashion editors, Will Furtado and Jessica Hannan, seeing how these cultures respond during a time of deep uncertainty for the future. Additionally, we visit Juergen Teller at his home in Bavaria, where he talks about working with Charlotte Rampling and art in the age of Instagram. Elsewhere in the magazine, Grayson Perry talks about why men need to be feminists, and we have a conversation with Chris Kraus about failure and inventing Karl Ove Knausgaard. For our cover story, photographer Mark Rabadan and stylist Toby Grimditch join forces in a womenswear editorial entitled “Working 9-5”.
