Beau Magazine 16

In the issue : For this anniversary issue, BEAU Magazine brings together two exclusive features: a previously unpublished portfolio by Meryl Meisler, a leading chronicler of New York’s nightlife and of Bushwick’s working-class communities, offering a vivid portrait of 1980s America, and a carte blanche given to artist PZ, former creative director at Vetements, known for her collaborations with Helmut Lang, Dover Street Market and Virgil Abloh. Throughout its pages, the magazine exploresthe ideas, places and personalities that shape our perspective and challenge our certainties. Fashion that heals. Gastronomy designed with the microbiome in mind. Architecture that evolves with life rather than against it. In Japan, a feature on the konbini, reimagined by designer NIGO, and turned into design laboratories where the extraordinary emerges from the ordinary. BEAU Magazine also gives a voice to those who question our times: Erin Brockovich, warning about the unchecked expansion of data centres, and Yvon Lambert, a visionary gallery owner and champion of contemporary art, who shares his perspective on art and our era. Finally, the editorial team posed an unexpected question: if our era had a scent, what would it be? To answer this, two leading perfumers have created an original olfactory composition, which you can discover within the pages of the magazine. Four years after its launch, BEAU Magazine remains true to its founding ambition: to reveal, through the details of everyday life, what is already shaping the world of tomorrowas its raw material and curiosity as its sole agenda.
