Please replace the section beginning with "Visionaire, under the directorship of Cecilia Dean…" to "Visionaire is an art, fashion, and luxury dedicated company which conceptualizes and produces films, public art installations, experiences, branded content, art multiples, and products under the directorship of Cecilia Dean and James Kaliardos. Visionaire was founded in 1991 as a platform for artists and photographers to present work that would have otherwise gone unseen. [1]
Visionaire’s issues have been described by The New York Times as “a publication that was neither fashion magazine nor art object but something in between,” [2] and are in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, NY; The New York Public Library; La Biblioteque Nationale de France, Paris; The Costume Institute at the MET; Victoria & Albert Museum, London; Beinecke Rare Book Library at Yale University, New Haven; Hyundai Card Design Library, Seoul; Instituto Tomie Ohtake, Sao Paulo, Brazil, along with private collectors.
Please replace the section beginning with "The multi-format art-and-fashion quarterly was founded by Stephen Gan..." to "Visionaire was founded by Stephen Gan, Cecilia Dean, and James Kaliardos in 1991 as a multi-format art-and-fashion quarterly. According to Gan, "Visionaire [was] really about a personal desire to do something. These are some of our friends who are artists' favorite images." [3]
Known for “toying with the boundaries of fashion and art” [4], Visionaire’s list of contributors has grown to include Steven Meisel, Mario Testino, Bruce Weber, Steven Klein, Inez & Vinoodh, John Baldessari, Mert & Marcus, Raf Simons, Alexander McQueen, Kate Moss, Gigi Hadid, Demna Gvasalia, Shirin Neshat, Yoko Ono, Vik Muniz, Maurizio Cattelan, and Marina Abramović, among many more. It is one of only two still remaining out of a 1994 Vanity Fair list of 10 "upstart" magazines to watch, alongside Surface. [5]"
Please replace the section beginning with "Visionaire was created by Stephen Gan, Cecilia Dean and James Kaliardos in a $950-a-month apartment that Gan and Kaliardos shared on West 11th Street..." to "Created in what Kaliardos now recalls as a $950-a-month apartment he shared with Gan on West 11th Street [6] and using $7,000 that Gan had saved up while working as a fashion editor at Details [7], the first issue of Visionaire, titled SPRING, launched as a portfolio of loose pages of different paper stocks in a limited edition of 1,000 numbered copies for $10 a copy [8].
Their efforts gained the attention of photographers and illustrators like Bruce Weber, Steven Meisel, Steven Klein, and Mats Gustafson, who soon began contributing their personal work to the publication themselves. As Visionaire continued to grow and use different formats, they launched more commercial magazines: V (1999), Vman (2003), and CR Fashion Book (2012) with Carine Roitfeld. In 2014, Gan, Dean, and Kaliardos parted ways [9]. Dean and Kaliardos began to focus on Visionaire's experimental concepts and pursued film & TV, public art, and special curatorial projects before signing with CAA (Creative Artists Agency) for development.
