Riccardo Tisci

DARKNESS | EXTREMES | RAW | RELIGION | ROMANTICISM | SENSUALITY | STREET

are words that best describe Riccardo Tisci, creative director of Givenchy. With these words, he approached artists, art directors, editors, friends, models, muses, performers and photographers, and invited them to participate in this issue of A MAGAZINE.

Most of the pieces you will discover within these pages were specially commissioned by Riccardo, others are much-loved sources of inspiration that he wanted to share with the readers.

Riccardo  is like a volcano, with thousands of ideas flooding out of his brain, leaving you with an extra-ordinary breathless feeling. Though he is naturally a very talkative person he wanted this issue to be full of images. Visions with no explanation, no text, just the artwork to be interpreted freely by each of you.

So, nor more words, just the pure joy of turning the pages and submerging yourself in Riccardo’s world.
