Toronto-based magazine and creative hub New Currency has just unveiled its third issue of its magazine, with its latest release following a slew of different artists who discover what it means to create in their respective cities.
New Currency launched back in 2015 when its founder, Kazeem Kuteyi -- who was obsessed with Tumblr at the time -- booked a trip to Paris to interview anyone who would give him the time. Now, New Currency is a fully-fledged creative incubator -- and its latest magazine issue looks to encapsulate that more than ever before.
In this new issue, titled Artists in the City, London-based curator and founder of Manifold, Faridah Folawiyo, and artists Olukemi Lijadu and Emmanuelle Loca-Gisquet, ponder the self and the city with New Currency's managing editor, Ade Aabegunde. Elsewhere, the magazine bridges timezone gaps for a three-way conversation between Hong Kong-based editor and Maekan founder, Eugene Kan, Berlin-based designer and founder of Acronym, Errolson Hugh, and Toronto-based designer and founder of his namesake brand, Spencer Badu.
Multidisciplinary artist Caleb Femi also takes readers on a visual “Tour de Souf” in London, while Toronto-based photographer and artist, Isabel Okoro, documents her friends dressed in Wales Bonner during a 48-hour stay in Paris. Additionally, Active Labour intervenes with a presentation of "Work Anywhere," a compilation of nine interviews with creative workers from around the world. This presentation explores themes of work-life balance, club culture, and how city environments affect the process and output of each worker.
