Front Magazine Summer 2010: Translations

In our Translations issue, Zadie Xa discusses the art of translating an artist statement and the challenge of coming up with a better rap name, David Khang re-speaks important speeches at the wrong times and in the wrong places, Himali Singh Soin has a frightening experience at the World’s No. 1 Spiritual Adventure High-Tech Presentation, and Liz Park suggests works on birdsong for those clogged with words.

Also in the issue are Cathy Busby, Mike Cadamia, Patrick DeCoste, Toril Johannessen, Leannej, the Lions, Jason Lujan, Louise Nel Phillips, Teodora Zamfirescu, and Western Front London Bureau. Front Magazine’s calendar of local arts events will help you get some culture with your sun this summer.
