Nomenus Quarterly - the new entrant in the world of art and fashion publications

A magazine that looks like a book, this new fine art publication offers an eclectic blend of fashion, art, politics, film, and the eternal written word. In the first issue, choreographer Noémie Lafrance talks with film critic Andrew Gaultier and Francesco Patriarca's abrasively beautiful work sits alongside an understated Heck-shot spread of Gilles Rosier's latest menswear collection. These are the movers and shakers of the imaginative moment. Printed in an edition of 5,000, Nomenus discards the chains of ink-based oppression, merging genres and setting itself apart from less-refined magazines, particularly with regard to the relationship between art and fashion.
