The sixth issue of Playground Magazine (The Exchange Issue) features include interviews with IFS, Ltd, the Yale graduates whose collaborative publication was bartered for during the New York Art Book Fair; artist Rebecca Lennon, who covertly records the confused conversations between debt collection agencies after she has placed them on the phone to one another; and – skyping from the Miami Poetry Festival – illustrator Sam Winston, who reworks and exchanges the visual structures of archetypal texts. Further highlights include an essay on the Dutch tulip bubble, an explanation of how Karl Marx’s overcoat contributed to the creation of his seminal text Capital, and a currency created exclusively for this issue of Playground by designer Fraser Muggeridge.
Issues can be exchanged for a mere five pounds from the stockists listed on playgroundmag.co.uk, or from our online shop: playgroundmagazine.bigcartel.com
