Font News – Type Specimen

Limited Edition

A new type specimen / artist fanzine, which showcases contemporary typefaces in a newspaper format, completed by an additional insert.

For the very first time, the newspaper Font News, published together with the supplement Font Menu, showcases the typographic work of Erkin Karamemet from his own label as printed matter. The large format of the newspaper invites the viewer to appreciate the typefaces in large, poster-like sizes. The curated texts by Gerrit Kotsivos reference pop-cultural curiosities and are further enhanced by overlaid spreads with amusing illustrations by the London-based artist Why Ebay. This
limited issue, produced as a special artist edition of only 300 copies, is something for typography enthusiasts to collect, explore, and celebrate contemporary type design.
