032c
032c is a biannual magazine on contemporary culture published in Berlin since 2000. Built around its motto, “Manual for Freedom, Research and Creativity”, it treats fashion, art, music and politics as a single conversation, pairing experimental photography and typography with long-form writing that refuses to talk down to its readers.
Issue 38 (Winter 2020/21) is 032c’s “20 Years” anniversary edition — 280+ pages marking two decades from DIY Berlin to global ready-to-wear, with a 28-page fold-out timeline by New Models, a visual audit by Virgil Abloh and a note from Anna Wintour. It runs across five covers — Alice Pagani, Gunna, Jeremy O. Harris, Matthew M. Williams with Anok Yai, and Kris Grikaite — alongside interviews with Gunna and Givenchy’s Matthew M. Williams and photography by Ari Marcopoulos and Hugo Comte.
Issue 48 (Winter 2025/26) appears with five covers — Deftones, Natasha Poly, Blackhaine, Nine Inch Nails and Maria Klaumann. Its central dossier doubles as an unofficial Nine Inch Nails tour book featuring Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, alongside Bruce Weber’s 1998 Jil Sander shoot, a Deftones story from Sacramento, and Natasha Poly’s “Goldraum 1” editorial shot inside the 032c Gallery.
Issue 46 (Winter 2024/25) is devoted to legacies — opening with Cassidy George’s ABC of Aphex Twin and a Brent McKeever shoot of Travis Scott styled by Peri Rosenzweig and Nick Royal against Valerio Olgiati’s architecture. Collier Schorr explores a new nuanced masculinity; elsewhere Jon Rafman, Benedetto Vigna, Jessica von Bredow-Werndl, Rudi Gernreich and the Berlin Review round out the issue across four cover variants.
