Online Feature: Inventory Eleven

Words

One of the better aspects of working for Inventory, and here I don't mean to brag, is that it enables us to collaborate not only with our friends, but also with people we greatly admire. Being able to combine both, or when one becomes the other, offers the ultimate feeling of fulfillment, and is something I know each of us cherish. Issue 11 of the magazine was no exception, and being able to visit and interview the Los Angeles-based artist Oliver Payne was certainly one of my own personal highlights. Having put up with an afternoon of questions, photographs and arcade game defeats, I was thrilled when Oliver also agreed to produce a short film for the launch of our latest issue.

Inventory Eleven was first shown back in November, as part of an exhibition, and during a night of celebration, at the Paris bookstore 0fr. Today we're proud to finally share Oliver's film online for the very first time, accompanied by a short Q&A with the artist about the concept behind it, and the themes contained within.

While copies have now started to show up at retailers, on newsstands and in our own stores, Issue 11 of Inventory officially launches in North America this week. After holding a reception at Visvim in Tokyo on Friday night, we're hosting two more events in the next couple of days: one in Los Angeles at the downtown location of the Ace Hotel, and the other at our New York store the following evening. Drinks and music will be offered at both, and we hope you're able to stop by if you happen to be in either city on either day. If not, then we'll also have another few launches coming up in the days ahead, so keep an eye out here and on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for further announcements.

Words

Having produced ten issues of Inventory it felt like the right time to take a step back; to evolve things and present something fresh. This is exactly what Issue 11 represents. Alongside a new format and updated design, the Fall-Winter ’14 cover, shot by Mark Borthwick, features Hiroki Nakamura – creator and designer of seminal brand Visvim. Our eleventh edition also includes Oliver Payne, Margaret Howell, John Gluckow, Dover Street Market, Hirofumi Kurino, Naissance and Yohji Yamamoto, as well as contributions by Shin Murayama, Hanna Putz, Brian DeGraw and Gosha Rubchinskiy. At 224 pages and with launches planned in Tokyo, Los Angeles and Paris, among other cities, it's our most ambitious issue to date. Now available from Inventory, the magazine will be arriving at stockists around the world over the course of the next two weeks.
