Fucking Young / 25

TELEVISION

 

“TV gives us new memories that we somehow appropriate and feel as our own.”

We have seen fashion break into our small screens and spawn a mass-media empire of shows, video games, and more. Many of us were raised on TV and there was a time when the world was not obsessed with conspiracy theories and grownups behaved skeptically like FBI agent Dana Scully. Today everything holds an entertainment value, but if we start removing the pixels, what values do we find?

“Representation matters. TV has the power to change mentalities… TV is a weapon. It can be misused but often brings social change. It entertains and educates us.” Adriano Batista, FY Editor-in-Chief

Our must-see TV lineup includes pop-culture phenomenons from Gossip Girl star Evan Mock gracing the cover shot by by TianZheng Yun, in a shooting inspired by the “Ugly Betty” series. We speak with designers Adrian Appiolaza, Ashton Hirota and our musical guest is none other than Jack Antonoff.

From SATC to Buffy, a the FY Issue 25 is more than a time capsule dedicated to our favourite past time with contributing photographers including Adrián Cuerdo, Aitana Valencia, Alan Marty, Alfredo Llamas, Andy Dyo, Carlos Villarejo, Colette Der Kinderen, Cristobal Cerdeira, Emil Kosuge, Isaac Calpe, Louise Reinke, Luis Ayora, Michiel Meewis, TianZheng Yun, and Uge Rubio.

"FUCKING YOUNG" originated as an inspiring platform centered around youthful aesthetics derived from masculine perspectives. Their freedom enabled a fusion of established and emerging artists, facilitating the latter in reaching their audience. This synergy, initially fueled by a passion for the arts, has evolved into actively promoting, sponsoring, and collaborating in the creation of artistic content. The endeavor has expanded to include a printed magazine, celebrating the community's creativity and seeking to enhance their imprint in the contemporary youthful hemisphere.
