Description

[Machine Translation] COVER STORY: Martin Margiela In 2008, after rewriting the history of fashion, Martin Margiela disappeared from the public eye. Yet even during those 10 Years of Silence" that followed, he never stopped creating. Empowered by the freedom he regained by stepping away from fashion, he expanded his artistic expression into drawing, collage, sculpture, video, and installation, quietly preparing for a new chapter. In this article, through an interview conducted on the occasion of his first large-scale solo exhibition in Japan, we explore the philosophy that underpins Margiela s creative process and examine the current state of his creativity as he transitions from designer to artist. Special Feature: The Ark of Design Left Behind by Ettore Sottsass Ettore Sottsass was a rare figure who not only revolutionized color and form but also reexamined the very meaning of design itself. His work which challenged functionalism and a homogeneous aesthetic, infusing objects with emotion, narrative, a sense of dissonance, and freedom remains fresh even today. In this special feature, we reexamine Sottosass s thinking and legacy through a commemorative dialogue between Michele Delucci and Alberto Alessi, as well as the words of Naoto Fukasawa and other contemporary practitioners. What did he dismantle, and what did he leave behind? We explore the scope of his work, which continues to inspire us to this day.

AXIS(アクシス) 2026年7月号 / アクシス

COVER STORY:マルタン・マルジェラ 2008年、ファッションの歴史を書き換えた後、マルタン・マルジェラは表舞台から姿を消した。しかしその後の「沈黙の10年」にも、彼は創作そのものをやめていなかった。ファッションを離れたことで取り戻した自由のもと、ドローイング、コラージュ、彫刻、映像、インスタレーションへと表現を拡張し、新たな章を静かに準備していたのである。本記事では、日本初の大規模個展を機に実現したインタビューを通して、マルジェラのものづくりを貫く思想と、デザイナーからアーティストへと連なる創造の現在地を読み解く。 特集:エットレ・ソットサスが遺したデザインの方舟 エットレ・ソットサスは、色や形の革新だけでなく、デザインそのものの意味を問い直した稀有な存在だった。機能主義や均質な美意識に揺さぶりをかけ、ものに感情、物語、違和感、そして自由を持ち込んだその仕事は、いま見てもなお新しい。本特集では、ミケーレ・デルッキとアルベルト・アレッシィによる追想対談をはじめ、深澤直人や現代の実践者たちの言葉を通して、ソットサスの思考と遺産をあらためて読み解く。彼は何を壊し、何を残したのか。いまなお私たちを刺激し続ける、その射程に迫る。
