Slanted Magazine #45 – Sex is a powerful exploration of gender, body politics, and sexuality, created in collaboration with Munich’s Archive Artist Publications (AAP), curated by renowned archivist Hubert Kretschmer. Drawing from one of the world’s largest private collections of rare artist publications—including over 89,000 zines, booklets, posters, and print media—this issue presents a rich visual and cultural archive.
Featuring both contemporary and historical works, Slanted Magazine #45 – Sex delves into themes of identity, self-image, and body representation. Highlighting non-binary, queer, disabled, and racialized perspectives, this edition challenges mainstream narratives and questions how media shapes our understanding of bodies and belonging.
Packed with provocative visuals, critical essays, and rare printed materials, this issue is essential reading for anyone interested in queer studies, feminist theory, body positivity, and independent art publishing. A must-have for collectors, artists, and cultural critics alike.
