We attended KIOSKO 001, the first in a series of events dedicated to reinterpreting the traditional magazine newsstand (Kiosko in Spanish), through collaborations with different artists and creators, in order to bring new life to this concept and create a space for independent publications.
This first edition took place last May at photography studio RUGE, in the up-and-coming neighbourhood of Oporto in Madrid. Collaborating with the studio founders, artists Borja Llobregat and Ostap Yashchuk, TAMBOURINE built an installation to showcase the latest issues of national and international, independent magazines.
If you’re an artist, architect, furniture designer or any other type of creative who wants to collaborate with TAMBOURINE on future editions of KIOSKO you can reach Sara and Silvia on the following e-mail address: info@playthetambourine.com
