The world has lost one of the great figurative painters of the twentieth century, and one of its most influential Pop artists. Featured here, David Hockney’s 2020 iPad drawing “10th September 2020,” from a series made in his later adopted home of Normandy, France. “I even caught the new moon,” he says of this work, in conversation with Hans Ulrich Obrist. “The last full moon was a fantastic moon, bigger and brighter than anything, and it cast shadows on the grass. And I got that down. I woke up at 4 A.M. for a pee, saw it out of the window, grabbed the iPad and drew it. Then I went back to bed an hour after drawing it.”

Featured image—of an SG-100 graphic equalizer, Aurex stereo amplifier model and Aurex AT-1000MK II audio digital timer from the collection of Japanese artist, designer, musician and creative director NIGO—is reproduced from new release NIGO: From Japan with Love, published to accompany the current exhibition at The Design Museum, London. Collecting key items and ephemera from NIGO’s personal collection—from childhood toys to iconic post-war American streetwear to his own designs for A Bathing Ape, Kenzo, Nike, Nintendo and other brands—this 224-page paperback documents the deep-cut cultural references that informed one of the most influential designers across contemporary culture. This stereo system, for example, belonged to NIGO’s brother. “It’s like catching air,” he says of the creative process. “Not an easy thing to define!”

Featured photograph—made by Milton H. Greene in 1955—is from new release Marilyn Monroe: A Portrait, published to accompany the centennial exhibition on view now at National Portrait Gallery, London. Collecting 225 reproductions and essays by a host of contemporary writers, this book goes beyond the triumph and the tragedy to the “tilted fairytale” of the universal. “Marilyn has something for everyone,” Lena Dunham writes. “If you feel you are caged by male perceptions of your beauty, she is a cautionary tale. And yet if you feel your body is too big, too wild, or too different, she let the curves that spoke louder than she could show through clingy fabrics. If you feel you are not taken seriously by the powers that be, Marilyn is someone who never became the actress, poet or painter she was in her private time. And if you want to prove that a sex kitten can powerfully shift the culture, there she is, singing ‘Happy Birthday’ to the president who happened to be her erstwhile lover. … She is everywhere. And despite being everywhere, with something for everyone, she had something just for me. Her story was a tilted fairytale I could wear like a locket, believing—as so many have believed—that the ways in which I saw her were different.”

Featured spreads are from Pride Month Staff Pick Love & Lightning: A Collection of Queer-Feminist Manifestos, co-published by Valiz and Girls Like Us magazine. “‘Manifesto’ is always, already slipping away from us,” editors Jessica Gysel and Sara Kaaman write in their Introduction; “morphing, changing, in never-ending transformation. A text is a portal to a specific time, place, and lived experience. Compressing wild writing and revolutions and dreams into neatly designed, typeset pages will always feel a little bit like violence. The violence of uniformity, the violence of anthologizing. But we do this work for the archives—for those who come after us, to find these words held together. The reaching never ends: reaching for a different world, reaching for peace, reaching for fair wages, reaching beyond capitalism, colonialism, extractivism. Reaching into the earth, for soil to kiss. Love is in the reaching. Dry tinder burns easily. What dries us up? Capitalism and all that—‘an utter bore.’ All that’s needed is a strike of lightning. A spark. Consider this book a spark. Use it to burn. Soft fires in your heart, large fires to make heat and change.”

Published out of Chicago during the DIY heyday of 1989 through 1993, THING magazine circulated throughout queer Black underground culture the old-fashioned way: by hand, mail and word of mouth. Today, like many of its early contributors—including Vaginal Davis, Larry Heard, Essex Hemphill and RuPaul—it is legendary. Built around the explosive early-90s house music scene, THING featured musicians, DJs, writers, artists, activists, performers and gossip alongside crucial information about the HIV/AIDS crisis that was decimating the community. Now, for the first time, all ten original issues of the magazine have been brought together in one facsimile reissue. Published by Primary Information, this pitch-perfect 460-page paperback arrives at just the right moment, as we find so many of our most beautiful, irrepressible, self-defined cultures again under pressure and in crisis. Contributions by editors Robert Ford, Trent Adkins and Lawrence Warren, plus likeminded luminaries including Lady Bunny, Bill Coleman, Dennis Cooper, Deee-Lite, Lyle Ashton Harris, Steve Lafreniere, Michael Musto, Ultra Naté, David Sedaris, David Wojnarowicz and Hector Xtravaganza, among many others.

Collecting all seven issues of Paul Mpagi Sepuya’s highly collectible self-published zine—in circulation 2005–2008— Paul Mpagi Sepuya: SHOOT is our choice to lead off Pride Month 2026. (See more Staff Picks here.) “I met ALEX through mutual friends almost a year ago,” Sepuya writes in Volume 2, March 2005. “He is one of those people with such striking features that you never forget him, but sometimes can’t quite place where you’ve seen him before. When I met him I knew that I’d have to take his portrait.”
