Forward Magazine Issue No. 5 - “To each era its art. To art its freedom.”

Forward proudly presents the fifth issue of its unique Design Magazine - „Der Zeit ihre Kunst. Der Kunst ihre Freiheit.” On 108 pages, including 8 interviews with a variety of Austrian creatives like Stefan Sagmeister, Frau Isa, Mafia Mashi and many more. The magazine takes a deep dive into Austrian design and what it stands for.

This year's amazing print design by Zwupp is emphasized by a cover with a special effect. The swallow on the cover is thermosensitive: At first glance it appears to be all black - but once you put it in the sun or warm it up with your hand, the famous title-giving claim of Wiener Werkstätte appears behind the black finish. Forward also introduces its newly founded Forward Network, which follows the collaborative spirit of the Wiener Werkstätte and features lots of creatives from different fields and styles.

Since 2018, Forward Creatives have been publishing our own annual print magazine, which is always in line with the Forwrd festival motto.
The design is brought to you by Zwupp, the content is by Forward Creatives and the magazine is read by every single Forward Festival visitor.
In our online shop you can order the magazine and read interviews with festival speakers like Stefan Sagmeister, Mirko Borsche, Jessica Walsh, Eike König, Annie Atkins, Paula Scher & Anthony Burrill.
