Bottega Veneta - Fanzine Winter 2024

Publisher: Bottega Veneta
Year: 2024
Condition: New

True to the spirit of collaboration and exchange at the heart of the house, the fifth edition of the fanzine celebrates the creative process behind Winter 24 collection, as well as contemporary artists who have drawn inspiration – or materials – from Blazy’s designs.

This edition features a campaign shot on location in Utah and Nevada by frequent Bottega Veneta collaborator Alec Soth, readers can enjoy behind-the-scenes snaps and a retrospective of the brand’s ‘On The Rocks’ installation from Milan Design Week, a collaboration with photographer Vytautas Kumza, and a portfolio of prints by collage artist Judy Bowman. This issue also includes an exclusive postcard set with further atmospheric images from Utah and Nevada, alongside an embroidered patch that nods to the folklore history of extraterrestrial activity in the area.

The new fanzine explores the creative side of Blazy’s designs, inviting artists to collaborate on pieces around the Winter 24 collection. Photographer Vytautas Kumzas contributes a playful photo series around key garments from the collection while artist Judy Bowman repurposes the richly textured fabrics into collages inspired by her childhood in Detroit’s Eastside and Black Bottom neighbourhoods.

Presented in a pull-draw slipcase, the fanzine is printed to emulate the special charred wood flooring of the Winter 24 show space.
