‘Dog Food [is] for the Mind and Soul. (...) It’s like punk-rock pamphleteering, but with a much nicer ethos.’ New York Times Magazine
DOG FOOD is loved by photo enthusiasts worldwide for combining mostly archival material with a splash of irony and cynicism. This annual, not-for-profit, 72-page photography zine, edited since 2012 by photographers Arjen Zwart and Jason Eskenazi and joined by photo historian Hedy van Erp as guest editor for DF11, presents its last ever issue in the fall of 2024. It is dedicated to the great Swiss-American photographer Robert Frank. ENJOY while you can! It’s (almost) free!
Sad to see Dog Food go? Good news: MoMA will showcase the zine later this year and a new photozine is on its way: FOTOLINI, made by Dog Food co-founder and graphic designer Arjen Zwart. Fotolini will be launched at Dialogue Vintage Photography Amsterdam, on 21 September 2024.
Dog Food issues offer a Photo Manifesto; a Foto-Roman; Photographers' Trigger-Fingers; a Tribute to Photographers that have Passed; 10/10 Lists of Photographers' 10 Films & 10 Literary Books that Influenced their Creative Lives; as well as new articles on varied themes and never before seen vintage photography. Cheers and keep on barking!
