As regular readers of Global Graphica know, we’re fans of Apartamento magazine. We always get excited when we see a new issue hit the newstands. It’s one of those rare periodicals these days that is almost exclusively a print experience; There’s an Apartamento website but it’s a mere presence. The magazine’s contents are only fully digestible in the actual printed edition of the magazine itself.
The current issue has been out for a few months already, but we just delved back into it while doing a little research and we got excited by it all over again. The issue looks great and features an interview and photos of artist Raymond Pettibon at home in his apartment in the new Frank Gehry “New York” building in downtown New York. Back in the day, Pettibon (pictured on the cover, below) created — among many other things — the iconic black-bars logo for the seminal American punk Black Flag .
