WEAR - Number Three (2012)

HomeShop was an artist-run space in Beijing from 2008 to 2013 and WEAR was a periodical publication. They called it their most ‘spartan’ issue, but that sure has its charm, too: stapled right through, basic paper, no glossy thing, but hey, it’s full colour and it smells nice.
‘Following the first two issues’ design of a coverless magazine about urban dress, this issue thinks about the fashionable phrase “你有种 nǐ yŏu zhŏng” in a few of the other realms where HomeShop likes to dwell: critical theory, micropolitics and artistic production. “有种 yŏu zhŏng” (literally meaning “to have seed” and metaphorically insinuating that one is ballsy or daring) becomes here more than a launchpad for a series of rolling activities (like seed bombing or urban exploring); it is also the point of potential from which the likes of a film critic, organic market organizers and artist-activists engage in a context-specific dialogue on the global realities at play in China.’
