Description
Kenzine is a collaboration between Toiletpaper magazine and Kenzo. Named after Kenzo's online blog, Kenzine has been published in a limited run of 2,400 numbered copies. Toiletpaper was founded in 2010 by Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari with the art direction of Micol Talso as a picture-based magazine.
Photos published in the magazine have been applied to a variety of products and media, exploring multiple possibilities for images to live beyond the page. The Toiletpaper creative team met with Kenzo and created the advertising campaign for the Fall-Winter 2013, Spring-Summer 2014, Fall-Winter 2014, and now Spring-Summer 2015 season.
Since 2011, Humberto Leon and Carol Lim have been the creative directors of Kenzo. Thanks to their new vision, the label has revived the spirit which lies at the origin of its success. Founders of the concept store Opening Ceremony, launched in September 2002 in New York, Humberto Leon and Carol Lim are now at the helm of Kenzo, aiming to inject their original energy into Parisian fashion.
Set in a graphic and futuristic universe, the team wanted to convey an optimistic utopia and also to provide an element of surprise in the images. The viewer witnesses something at once instantly recognisable and familiar but upon closer reflection records an observation into the unknown.
For Leon and Lim, "Toiletpaper were an obvious choice to work with on this project. The strength and impact of their work is often in the most subtle visual tricks which become more powerful the longer you are exposed to them."

About the Author
The fashion house of Kenzo was started in 1970 as Jungle Jap, a boutique in Paris at Galerie Vivienne where the founder Kenzo Takada, sold his handmade women's collection. The flagship Kenzo store was opened at 3 Place des Victoires in 1976, and the brand expanded into a full Parisian fashion house. In 1993, Kenzo joined the LVMH Group. In 1999, Kenzo marked its 30th anniversary and the retirement of its Artistic Director Kenzo Takada. In July 2011, Carol Lim & Humberto Leon, founders of the Opening Cerimony fashion retail stores and private label collection were appointed Creative Directors of Kenzo. Toiletpaper is an artists' magazine created and manufactured by Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari, born out of a passion/obsession they both cultivate. This is the fourth campaign that Toiletpaper have created with the fashion house. The magazine was founded in 2010 by artist Maurizio Cattelan and photographer Pierpaolo Ferrari as an exploration of society's obsession with imagery.
