Published by Rizzoli in 2008 in celebration of Purple’s 15th anniversary, Purple Anthology is the definitive record of the magazine’s reign as fashion’s most subversive and influential voice. More than a compilation, it is a cultural time capsule tracking the collapse of boundaries between fashion, art, sex, politics and publishing at the turn of the millennium. The anthology unfolds across reproductions of revolutionary covers and fashion editorials, interviews, essays and visual experiments from past issues dated from 1992 to 2006 that defined an era of intelligent provocation. Featuring contributions from iconic figures spanning generations and disciplines such as Juergen Teller, Helmut Lang, Rita Ackermann, Richard Prince, Kate Moss, Kim Gordon, Vanessa Beecroft, Chloë Sevigny and Mark Borthwick, all united by a shared resistance to polish and predictability.
