For WK12, Life Is Good
When we opened our copy of Good, a sweet new publication based here in LA, it was the masthead that first caught our eye: alongside James Surowiecki, Neal Pollack and Joel Stein, we found Tamara Shopsin, Peter Arkle, and six drop-dead gorgeous graphic explorations by 2x4 (those you gotta see in print). But what struck us most was this, a graphic statement which will be crafted by a designer or artist for each issue. This time it was WK 12, and Jimm Lasser explains exactly how one does go about creating a graphic statement: GOOD asked us to create the first two spreads of their first issue around the theme of "I Heart America." We were free to do whatever we wanted, which made the job creatively even more difficult. Not only was the subject matter broad and divisive, but execution was as well. Much has been said about the philantropic nature of Good's business model. But we're subscribing to support its dedication to design patronage. That's reason enough for you to buy it, too.
