SALAT MAGAZIN
The Salat Magazin is an independent artistic publication by Yuni Hwang and
Roland Nils Sonnabend, who study @Kunstakademie Düsseldorf.
They
are presenting future famous artists. It ś an exhibition on paper. It ś a
magazine. It ś a piece of art. It ś everything and nothing. But most of all it
is nice. They are doing it because they like it. Some say that god spoke to them
in a dream and told them to do the magazine.
And then they said alright why not, but we make our own rules. Others
argue that they were kidnapped (or rather geniusnapped) by aliens, who implanted
the idea into their brains, because no human being could ever come up with an
idea as awesome as that. Or maybe they are just coming from a future
civilization, which could explain why they are so ahead of their time. However
the third issue of Salat Magazin is called photophoto. As you can see it ś all
about photography.
It gives you divine blissful joy like no magazine ever has before.
Have fun!
