Word Up, May 2003

The Word Up issue, May 2003 from TANK Magazine.

In times of crisis, discussion seems futile and words lose their meaning. How many words have been banned or forgotten? And how many of those have now slipped away forever? We know TANK is always full of gorgeous imagery, but for this issue we implored our readers to focus on the words. Get gripped by John Berger's take on the trappings of consumerist ideology, follow Rem Koolhaas and Galahad Clark’s infinite footwear and explore the cruel theatrics of Idi Amin’s dictatorship with Riccardo Orizio.
