IG We Love：雜誌背後的素材搜集，一窺《Kinfolk》兩位主理人的生活靈感

一本具有優質生活美感的刊物需要透過大量的社會及日常觀察，更需集結攝影、美術、設計等專業來激盪各種同主題性的題材。而談到具備生活、美學、設計的質感刊物，《Kinfolk》絕對能登上我心中的排行榜中前五名，也其中也讓人好奇這本光擺著就滿足、捨不得翻閱的精緻刊物，背後的負責人是否也如此獨具品味呢？

Introducing Issue Thirty-Three! Soul, sex and social activism: This fall, Kinfolk’s Education Issue rejects the definition of a good education as one that ends with good grades and considers a new curriculum for life-long learning. Plus: Interviews with Waris Ahluwalia, Michaël Borremans and Desiree Akhavan, a still life shoot styled as a puzzle book and an exploration of online scams.

Really excited to announce that I am publishing the second book under @creative_future today. Entitled Here For The Ride, the book is made in close collaboration with Brooklyn-based photographer Andre D. Wagner and marks his first monograph and comprehensive body of work in print. Made up of sixty-two photographs shot by @photodre between 2013 and 2016, Here For The Ride explores the poetic side of everyday life, chronicling people of different ethnicities, cultures and social groups as they embark on a personal journey through the New York City subway. Read more about the project on creativefuture.dk.

New Work — Tokyo Rising: As daylight fades into the neon lights of night, Tokyo reflects its own glow. — Creative direction for the Tokyo-themed fashion editorial ‘Tokyo Rising’ in the latest issue of Kinfolk. Drawing inspiration from the observing and voyeuristic visuals of great American photographers such as Saul Leiter and Harry Gruyaert, the aim was to capture the urban spirit and facets of Tokyo in a calm yet vibrant manner. The editorial was photographed by Parisian photographer @romainlaprade and styled by @daisuke__hara using mainly Japanese brands. — Photography @romainlaprade Styling: @daisuke__hara Hair & Makeup @shimo_nagata Models: @hiromi_yamamura & @keisuke0123455 Production / AD @studio_gotwh Creative Direction: @christianmandersen

Christian Møller Andersen 所負責的系列主題較偏向藝術性，像是雜誌的整體主軸與概念走向，或是帶有故事性的影像創作、企劃不等。雖然個人頁面並無太多個人生活的分享，但仍可看出他在雜誌擔任藝術指導這期間對刊物的風格影響，同樣乾淨利落又帶著豐沛情感，是《Kinfolk》幕後不可或缺的重要推手之一。
