Local Events: 75 Years for Esquire Magazine

Print magazines are fighting the good fight. It seems like every time we go to the newsstand another one of our favorites has disappeared. But there’s hope. There’s Monocle and a few others that have discovered ways to co-exist and do well against the increasingly influential interwebs. Perhaps against isn’t the right word. They’ve learned to adapt and grow with the increasing influence of the web. For instance, publications like the New York Times have navigated print and web mediums well. But even still, when you consider how hard it is to survive today’s publishing world, the long running existence of established titles becomes glowingly impressive.

Esquire Magazine is celebrating its 75th anniversary in London this week. Their UK relaunch is marked by an art installation at The Hospital. Tipping their hat to earlier days, Esquire has commissioned reworks of past covers with contemporary icons. These icons include Paul Smith, Dontella Versace, D+G, Karl Lagerfeld, and a few others. If you’re in the area be sure to check it out. Click Read More for additional information and details.
