About F Newsmagazine
What happens when one of the country's leading
art schools puts out a student newspaper?
You get a newspaper that is read all over the city.
Each month 12,000 copies are distributed free at
colleges, cafés, bookstores, record stores, galleries, art
supply stores at over 250 locations throughout
Chicago.
The artists you will read about tomorrow give you
their incisive take on our culture today in F
Newsmagazine. They also give you a privileged entry
into one of Chicago's most fascinating communities,
the art school rated #1 by U.S. News and World
Report.
We've had interviews with political commentator
Barbara Ehrenreich, filmmakers like Jackie Chan, and
cutting edge artists like Christo, Andres Serrano, and
Laurie Anderson; fascinating features on popular and
alternative culture; and provocative essays on cultural
politics.
Irreverent, Angry, Seriously Wacky
We also have bold, new journalism, like reporter
Quanah Humphreys auditioning for Clown College or
calling telephone psychics when the school
administration won't answer his questions; and
groundbreaking scientific experimentation, like our
photo demonstration of how many household objects
you can fit into one student's baggy pants.
