Cover slightly rubbed, otherwise good and very clean. - Publishers Note: IF YOU TAKE A TRIP TO THE NEWSSTAND to sample TODAY'S PUBLIC TASTES, luxury AND CELEBRITY are the order OF THE DAY. If you're not talking on your Blackberry while driving your Bentley to your Botox appointment, then you're just not keeping up with the Joneses. So how then does graffiti art end up on Louis Vuitton handbags and art made from cow dung get in world famous museums while hip hop stars continually rap about holding it down in the hood despite living in mansions in the suburbs? In the HIGH LOW issue we explore similar themes by speaking with some of the biggest-name practitioners of the contemporary art world: Richard Prince, Francesco Clemente, Maurizio Cattelan and Jeff Koons. In music, Lil Jon, Lyor Cohen, Sa-Ra and Ghostface are personalities making hip hop the most marketed music in the world. And in people's daily lives, high design concepts have become accessible for all consumers, through the efforts of forwardthinking companies such as Volkswagen, Rockstar Games and Adobe. As the digital generation matures the line between high and low has been blurred to such an extent that, as easy as using a Photoshop filter, we can cut and paste ourselves into a completely new context. This is the decade where an entitled Princeton party boy can become a successful cowboy politician, a hotel heiress a pom star and a street hustler a media mogul. Which raises the possibility that you can be whoever or whatever you want to be. We wouldn't have it any other way. - Contents: Cornelius Quabeck -- Antony and the Johnsons - Never Die Books -- The 5th Color -- The Establishment -- Holding Court -- The Nun and the Vacuum Cleaner -- Rap Rules -- Design Every Day -- agnes b -- The Shape of Things to come -- Jean and Johnny -- Go Tanzania.
