Content

Slanted Magazine #45-Sex explores sexuality, gender, and body politics through a curated selection of artistic publications and critical essays. Created in collaboration with Munich's Archive Artist Publications (AAP), led by artist and archivist Hubert Kretschmer, this issue draws from one of the world's most extensive private collections of artist publications-containing over 89,988 rare zines, booklets, and posters.

Presenting a diverse range of historical and contemporary works, Slanted Magazine #45-Sex showcases publications that challenge conventions and reshape the discourse on self-image, identity, and representation. Alongside these visual narratives, in-depth essays offer multifaceted perspectives on the role of media, cultural taboos, and shifting societal norms. The issue provides a space for critical engagement, questioning how marginalized bodies-non-binary, queer, disabled, racialized-are represented in art and media.

With striking imagery and thought-provoking texts, Slanted Magazine #45-Sex opens up a necessary dialogue on desire, power, and the politics of visibility.
