Rubbish is an independent magazine that takes its name from what society discards and turns it into an editorial philosophy. The publication explores culture, art, fashion, and creativity through the things that mainstream media ignores, dismisses, or considers beneath notice — the rubbish of the cultural landscape that, upon closer inspection, turns out to be some of the most interesting material available.
The editorial voice is irreverent but never cynical, playful but never trivial. Rubbish understands that the most interesting creative work often happens at the margins, in the spaces between established categories, and among the people and projects that polite culture has decided are not worth the attention. The magazine disagrees, vigorously, and backs up that disagreement with photography, writing, and design that take the overlooked seriously.
For readers who have always suspected that the most exciting things in culture are the ones nobody is paying attention to, Rubbish provides a guided tour through the creative underground — curated with impeccable taste by people who know that one person's rubbish is another person's revelation.
