To recognise #GraphicDesign as an active player in cultural production, and to shift the conversation from its fixation on the global North.

We reflect on the first day of last week's magCulture Live 2020 event: https://t.co/Xq5gjC8prI feat: @thedailyheller @JournalSafar @Record_Magazine @Terri_White @empiremagazine +more

[magCulture @magculture]

Wrapping up a brilliant talk from @JournalSafar, @mayamoumne discusses the dual front covers of the current issue, "ISSUE 5 #MIGRATION", which features activist, migrant domestic workers Mekdes Yilma & Tsigereda Brihanu, interviewed via Zoom 🟥🟦 #magCultureLive2020 #JournalSafar

[magCulture @magculture]

Continuing, @mayamoumne discusses the impact of the #Beirut explosion earlier this year: the damage it caused and is still causing to minority communities, the protests which followed, and how @JournalSafar will continue to respond in print... 🟥🟦 #magCultureLive2020

[magCulture @magculture]

Now up, it's @mayamoumne of @JournalSafar. Below, the #NOSTALGIA issue, the issue where people started: "taking notice." Interestingly, once the team "shifted from an experimental [cover] to one that adopts more conventional modes of designing covers for mags" – @mayamoumne 🟥🟦

[Enrique Bordes @comicarchitect]

Uno de mis algoritmos de lectura favoritos se llama @StackMagazines: una revista independiente distinta cada mes. Éste tocó @JournalSafar de Beirut, con joyas como el artículo sobre "The Maid´s Room" o los autorretratos alemanes de @mazenkerbaj (obligado cuando hay BD y Beirut).

[Lisa Wallin @lisawritesjp]

Absolutely stunned by @JournalSafar’s beautiful design. Can’t wait to get stuck in!

@maia_here_now @JournalSafar I need the new one!

[Rhiannon @RhiannonDavies]

A lazy Saturday & I’m absolutely engrossed by @JournalSafar, the latest delivery from @StackMagazines - a bilingual indie mag from Beirut full of essays, interviews & insight ‘trying to shift the conversation on design & visual culture from its fixation in the global North.’

[Gianluigi Peccerillo @Ggian_P]

Beirut-based design team Maya Moumne and Hatem Imam founded @JournalSafar in 2014 with the intention of highlighting cultural production and exchange in Lebanon and the region.

Issue V verrrry good 👏🏼
