Rankin will be launching his brand new biannual, THE HUNGER and its live, digital embodiment, THE HUNGER TV on November 17th 2011. A pioneering magazine and website which are designed to inspire and incite the creative hunger in us all, Rankin also intends for them to become a platform for young emerging talent across all artistic fields. THE HUNGER is unique in its strong and unfaltering visual identity, a result of Rankin shooting much of the photography and his being instrumental in directing the overall design and style. The magazine will feature a selection of individuals from the worlds of art, design, fashion, drama, music and more, who have also pushed at the cultural boundaries in their own fields. It is a celebration of artistic passion and enterprise, from the past to the up and coming.

I bought this magazine today because at £4 and possibly weighing slightly more than a housebrick, it strikes me as incredibly good value for money.
I mean, yeah, it is largely pictures but extraordinarily nice-looking ones and fairly in-depth articles and interviews when they pop up. On flicking through… I don’t see any adverts (well, other than the fashion pages, but they’re don’t really count I suppose).
Maybe the price will go up for the next issue (it’s biannual), but for now at least, this is aces.
