PIN-UP #37

PIN–UP is a New York-based magazine focused on pure architectural entertainment — the meeting point of architecture, art, and design.

In this issue: The PIN–UP Museum Issue! In this first in a series of guest-edited issues, curators Fredi Fischli and Niels Olsen pose two essential questions: is The Museum a space that can nurture and inspire the imagination; or is it a place of ruin where objects go to die? In other words: is it necessary? Or should the museum go away? Find out more on 208 beautifully designed pages, including nine collectible covers featuring Martine Syms, Carrie Mae Weems, Smiljan Radić, Itusko Hasegawa, and more. Museum-worthy.

Also inside: a special section on Warsaw's new Museum of Modern Art; interviews with Martine Syms, Smiljan Radić, Max Richter and Itsuko Hasegawa; features on Carrie Mae Weems' monochrome Museums series and a reenactment of 17th century Pilgrim life in Massachusetts. Plus, 37 of PIN-UP's current favourite things, while John Waters has the final say on museum toilets.
