Invited for the fourth time by the A Magazine Curated By team, Alexandre documented the image-making process of photographer Samuel Fosso, for his new series Autoportrait II (Fosso Fashion 2021) that appears inside A Magazine Curated by Grace Wales Bonner, and can be seen at #ExpoFosso shown at La Maison Européenne de la Photographie in Paris until March 2022. Shot with two cameras (analog and digital), Alexandre explores image juxtaposition in the edit room with two short films / director’s cut. For the magazine he signs a film using only images and words from the contributors.

Reviving a lost classic, A Magazine presents a limited-edition reprint of A Magazine Curated By Maison Martin Margiela (2004), nearly two decades after its original release. The 2021 replica features original content preserved from cover to cover, with matching paper stock and cover treatments. Each new issue contains 1 of 6 unsigned archive prints of photography by Mark Borthwick, Anders Edström, Marina Faust, Jonathan Hallam, Paul Helbers & Ola Rindal, or Inge Grognard & Ronald Stoops. A charitable donation to Sea Watch and RIACE has been made in the name of the contributing artists. A testament to the ongoing relevance of the founding ideals of the Maison Martin Margiela, this document celebrates the previously anonymous talents of the house. A Magazine Curated By Maison Martin Margiela lays bare their dedication to such phenomena as the deconstruction of garment-making and the disruption of classical ideals in photography, street casting, unconventional beauty, subversive communication, and a Dadaist approach to the very concept of fashion and object design.
