WERK No.2: I Wish For One Leather Jacket Comes With Many Scary Metals In New York City (2000/01)

シンガポールのデザイナー、テセウス・チャン（Theseus Chan）による雑誌『WERK』第2号。

その初期5号は、ヴィジュアル、タイポグラフィ、デザインの観点から「フォーマット」そのものを探求した、純粋な実験の記録です。現在の判型とは異なり、同じ服を異なるデザイナーが解釈する企画（第3号）、テキストを完全に排しクレジットを型押しで表現した号（第5号）など、毎号異なるアプローチで印刷物の既成概念に挑戦。各号ごとに、その後の展開の序章となる初期の探求の記録が収められています。

The legendary magazine WERK by Singaporean designer Theseus Chan. Its first five issues are a pure record of experimentation, exploring the very concept of 'format' through visuals, typography, and design. Each edition challenges the preconceived notions of printed matter with a different approach, from a project where six designers interpret the same set of clothes (No. 3), to an issue that eliminates text entirely, with its credits debossed on the cover (No. 5). Witness the initial explorations that form a prologue to the magazine's celebrated evolution.
