One Page Magazine
One Page Magazine is a new series of prints by Joseph Ernst. Each image analyses the content of a different magazine. In the examples above, the left one features all the headlines from one issue of Hello!, reproduced to scale and in the position on the page they appeared. The second example does the same with the logos in all the advertisements from a single issue of UK Vogue. Interesting stuff; who would have thought the fashion logos of Vogue ads would be bigger and bolder than the headlines of Hello!?

I’d always thought of printing out all the ‘bits on the side’ that appear in the document when you delete a load of pages and all the discarded bits on the side of the page merge into a chaotic mess but somehow have the essence of the magazines design personality through glimpses of typefaces, colours and furniture.

i’m not sure when the One Page Magazine was created, but it’s a bit too close to the work of Graham Dolphin, who has done pieces where he has traced ‘Every Shoe In Vogue’ on to one sheet, or handwritten Every Word In Vogue etc. Still, the contrast with Hello is good and One Page has some other great stuff.
Graham Dolphin even did a book ‘Everything in Vogue’ and has many artworks which centre around deconstructing the magazine as format/concept.
