USELESS FIGHTERS #1

USELESS FIGHTERS is a new large format publication that resists the tired clichés of snow play and Alpine tourism, to show how fascinating and important mountains are to culture, politics, identity, sport, and the world. A beautiful, contemporary biannual that reimagines the mountains for a new audience.

With contributions from artists, photographs and fashion designers such as Francis Alÿs, Lea Colombo, Setsumasa Kobayashi, Philippe Parreno, Yukari Chikura, Nigel Cabourn, Marvin Leuvrey, Abdellah Taïa, Francesca Gavin, Karim Boukercha, Quentin De Briey, Daquisiline Gomis.

A lushly produced publication that takes one of the most important landforms on Earth as a starting point to look at creativity, politics and culture.
A document of the people who live, work, ride, climb, cross, play, explore, hike, drive across and creatively engaged with mountain ranges.

Published by PERMANENT.FILES, a new creative joint venture between visionary designer-entrepreneur Ramdane Touhami and art director Léonard Vernhet (EPOCH Review).
