A seemingly disparate collection of artists are brought together under the umbrella of Noon, the new biannual from Jasmine Raznahan, the London-based former Art Director of Pop magazine. Between the pages, German photographer Michael Wolf captures Hong Kong’s interlocking skyscrapers as abstract grids of color, while Canadian artist Jon Rafman dreams up a CGI tavern where every surface is a Roy Lichtenstein painting. “I wanted to give the contributors a complete creative freedom,” says Raznahan, founder of the graphic design agency ARPA. “Today, we are all completely overloaded, and it's strange and brilliant.” The rogue artists offer their perspectives on the world they inhabit today. “It is a strange time to be alive because technology is taking over,” says photographer Max Farago, whose snapshots document nudes in and around Venice Beach, California. “There are endless distractions which prevent us from relating to ourselves and others. It takes a huge amount of discipline and mindfulness to connect.”

Noon is available from April 1.
