a new hero is born to mean silence.
Popy Blasco, the famous English blogger (aka the boy you love to hate), did not save a compliment to the present time some time in your own blog.
"Anna Wintour is the English," said Popy; "Penelope Cruz is the magazine editors" is the English editor of the moment! ".
Believe it or not, these descriptions are not exaggerated.
Luis Venegas is the man most talked about English publishing world, a title earned at age 32 and with just three titles in his repertoire: Fanzine 137, Electric Youth (EY!) and Candy.
If you do not believe us, look for your name in The New York Times, Dazed, V Magazine, El Pais, or any of a dozen publications have documented the rapid and amazing way to success, a fascinating route that started at the Barcelona home of a construction worker ("My father ran the backhoe) and a housewife, continued in the workshops of the designer Sybilla in Madrid, and ended finally in the freedom of his own imagination.
If you do not know your work, here are some facts.
Fanzine 137, her first magazine, is "an independent publication of art and fashion images on a page can lead to Julio Iglesias and Grace Coddington in the next," explained The New York Times in a opportunity.
Luis is more direct and concise: "It's a magazine about all things that please me."
And Electric Youth, Luis, what is?
"Electric Youth is a publication of children light and sexy scantily clad monkeys for a fun time. Neither more nor less, "said the editor Popy. "It's not intellectual. The idea was to give the public too gay teen the chance to have a dignified and sexy magazine. "
Popy, with the daring of those who do not mince words, then asked: - Do you masturbate with your own magazine?
- Nah, so far I have never done ... When I get my chip raw photos professional editor, trying to choose the most suitable for each global project. Also then I have to focus on the promotion and distribution of copies around the world or comes to my head looking at me a straw.
Luis The unquestionable professionalism demonstrated again a few months ago when it launched Candy, the first magazine-style "cross" of the world.
What does that mean?, You ask.
"Candy is a magazine dedicated to celebrating transvestism, transsexuality, androgyny and cross-dressing. So, all together, "says Luis. "I call it the first magazine" Cross ", a term that already existed but I like to use to gather all these events under one umbrella. It is a world that throughout history has regarded fashion magazines but fashion magazines that has never looked or devoted their full attention. Candy is not a magazine just for transvestites, is for anyone interested in style, culture and beautiful and unusual things. "
In its second edition, Candy carries James Franco on its cover, no less, photographed by Terry Richardson. The next host of the Oscar poses with a black tuxedo, necklace, earrings, leather gloves, lipstick, eye shadow and the provocative attitude of Joan Collins-Luis favorite actress, obviously, circa 1986.
How does Louis, who says money does not have partners such as Franco, Richardson and Bruce Webber? -
"I approach people I like from admiration, humility, the deepest respect and highest education possible, "he says," ... In general, employees are reluctant to participate when they see the numbers above of my publications. Also, since I first started this little by little I've been gaining a reputation that makes it easier to involve the artists that move me in my projects. "
A good idea is worth millions.
Here are some pictures of the latest edition of Candy.
