Carpazine magazine proudly celebrates its 40th edition, showcasing our fearless editor, Fernando Carpaneda, on the cover, ready to conquer new horizons. As we reach this milestone, Carpazine stands tall, undeterred by challenges, and committed to delivering captivating content that defies the norm. In a realm dominated by conformity, Carpazine dares to venture into the vibrant underworld of contemporary art, street art, and music. We reject the cookie-cutter approach of mainstream art publications, opting instead to spotlight the raw and unconventional. In our latest Special Issue, we unveil the 40 most graffiti-splattered cities worldwide, a testament to the global reach of Carpazine. Our esteemed photographer, Gregory Norris, continues his odyssey, capturing the essence of graffiti culture in cities such as Amsterdam, Venice, Rome, Colombia, Greece, Albania, Bosnia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Sarajevo, Paris, Bogota, Barcelona, and beyond. We extend our deepest gratitude to the countless visual artists, graffiti virtuosos, musicians, and luminaries who have graced the pages of Carpazine, enriching our publication with their creativity and passion. Our dedicated team, including Theodore DeGraff, Gregory Norris, Christopher M. Kubick, and Jimmy The Gem, acknowledges the unwavering support of our loyal fans and advocates. With the tenacity of a boxer, we embrace the challenges ahead, poised for a knockout performance in the next 40 editions as we persist in our mission to challenge conventions and champion artistic expression.
