Maurizio recently hung almost every piece he ever created from the ceiling of the Guggenheim, giving art lovers some pretty serious neck problems. Pierpaolo, meanwhile, shoots everything from fashion to celebrity portraits to sport and also does some art photography on the side. He’s a machine, basically (but a very amicable one). Together, they’re the masterminds behind the biannual magazine Toilet Paper, possibly the best thing anyone’s printed in the past two years (outside VICE, of course). We got them to agree to send some new work that may or may not appear in a forthcoming issue of Toilet Paper. You’ll just have to buy it to find out. See THE COVER and A FEW PIECES OF TOILET PAPER, page 70 BRUCE GILDEN Bruce Gilden spent his childhood teaching himself photography and observing the customs of the urban tribes of Brooklyn.

Electroclash combines the extended pulsing sections of techno, house and other dance musics with the trashier energy of rock and new wave. The genre signals an attempt to reinvigorate dance music with a sense of sexuality, personality and irony.
