"Elephant" looks at how it's done. "Elephant" visits art and design studios, peers over shoulders, steps on graffiti artists' toes, disturbs rehearsals, interrupts takes, rides fixed-gear bikes, and plays the latest computer games."Elephant"'s tone of voice is direct, sincere, and multidisciplinary. "Elephant" believes it's time for less cynicism and more encouragement for outbursts of spontaneity--think of those that gave birth to futurism, dadaism, and surrealism."Elephant" is the first and only visually oriented art magazine that features over two hundred pages of high-quality, up-to-date, original creative material from all over the world.
