IMPRESSIONS MAGAZINE

Issues 19-24 1978-1980 Lorne Fromer, co-editor

In the spring of 1978 Isaac Applebaum, then-editor, invited Rodney Werden and myself (Lorne Fromer) to brainstorm a way out of escalating printing costs facing Impressions Magazine.
Unable to match the quality of some of the fine monographs that IMPRESSIONS had published in the past, a new configuration of people, budgets and technology began driving the publication towards a new concept for a magazine. Oversized and printed on newsprint, Impressions made up for quality reproduction with size and grit. Only the cover retained the fine sheet-fed quality of previous Impressions monographs.
Photo-based became the editorial operative. From interviews and found art, photo documents of performances, a photo fumeti, to scripts, letters, snapshots, post cards--- they all made it to the pages of Impressions.
Impressions was never about - Impressions was - first generation, in your face raw, gritty, and large. 11” x 15” large. In 6 issues Impressions went from the coffee table to the bathroom library, and to our delight we discovered there were a lot of readers there.
In 1983 Impressions morphed into C magazine, one of Canada’s leading art periodicals.

CHRISTO

May 30, 2022

Christo works with not just nylon and steel, but a network of structures that govern our use of land. Initially he required the permission, not of curators, but of sixty ranchers over whose land the fence would cross, then of the State of California, which held jurisdiction over the coastal section. In all, Christo attended seventeen public hearings and several court sessions. Christo sees each activity as an important part of the completed project.
