{ ROJO Magazine }

Rojo Magazine isn't a magazine at all. There's nothing to read. No paragraphs, no sentences, no authors. There is no table of contents, nothing. But that does not in any way mean that there is nothing said. Compiled in Barcelona, Spain, ROJO is a compendium of artworks from creatives around the globe, all created with very few rules, and made exclusively for ROJO. It is the uber-'Zine. The rules are simple, besides the main rule of the work being made specifically for dispay in ROJO, the work must relate to no specific time or event, so as to have a relationship only unto itself and the other works in that issue. Recent copies have included work from such artsits as Valentina Cameranesi, Joana Brabo, Guy Goldstein, Above, Deubal, Olga Filaktou, Andi Color, Stephen Crowhurst, Nuno Valerio, Lolo, Enrique Radigales, Baltasar Sanmarti, Marc Atlan, and Piero Di Biase, to name a whole bunch (because who only wants a few?). Printed on heavy stock gloss, and perfect bound, to order and acquire an issue of ROJO is not to acquire another magazine to read and throw away, it is to aquire a work unto itself, made to stand alone, to document nothing, a unique open gallery contained within a modest paper cover.
