Our Background |
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.
