LETTER TO JANE

About

INSPIRATION

The name comes from HERE

The inspiration comes from these quotes:

“And since everything is not obvious Jane, let us ask ourselves questions. But let us make an effort to ask them differently. In other words let us ask new questions in order to be able to give new answers.”
- Jean Pierre Gorin

“It is organized a certain way, and functions in a certain way, and we want to discuss it all, starting from there.”
– Jean-Luc Godard

“ART CRITICISM is a second-degree spectacle. The critic is someone who makes a spectacle out of his very condition as a spectator — a specialized and therefore ideal spectator, expressing his ideas and feelings about a work in which he does not really participate. He re-presents, restages, his own nonintervention in the spectacle. The weakness of random and largely arbitrary fragmentary judgments concerning spectacles that do not really concern us is the lot of all of us in many banal discussions in private life. But the art critic makes a show of this kind of weakness, presenting it as exemplary.”
- Guy Debord

“REVOLUTION IS NOT “showing” life to people, but bringing them to life. A revolutionary organization must always remember that its aim is not getting its adherents to listen to convincing talks by expert leaders, but getting them to speak for themselves, in order to achieve, or at least strive toward, an equal degree of participation.”
- Guy Debord

LETTER TO JANE MAGAZINE

Letter to Jane Magazine is a new culture zine that is free to view or download at http://lettertojane.com/mag

The project–spanning across 180 ad free pages–is the brainchild of Portland, Oregon photographer Timothy Paul Moore and features contributions and interviews from Yoko Ono, Passion Pit, No Age, Hedi Slimane, Aziz Ansari, Peter Bjorn and John, and many more. Issue 01 carries the torch for its namesake (Jean-Luc Godard and Jean Pierre Gorin’s 1972 film Letter to Jane) by looking at culture and trying to find new questions to ask of it. Today’s Letter to Jane gives understanding of our 21st century creative community through the lens of the artist’s themselves; their views, their thoughts, their voice on contemporary culture.
