Fotolini is an A5-format photozine for lovers of paper magazines and obscure, unconventional vintage photography. Sometimes with an unexpected modern counterpart, and always with contemporary relevance and a generous dose of irony. Every issue contains a remarkable lonely-hearts section, and a guest chooses a favourite photo book cover that fits the theme best.
LOVE, the most overused theme in art history, becomes something else entirely in Fotolini#1. From secret messages hidden under stamps, to the anger of a child; from a mother who accidentally decapitated her children on the negative, to the love, pain and absurdity surrounding men in uniforms. From lonely hearts who advertise themselves on the love market, to modern body positivity fashion that turns out not to be so modern. For the main article, Esther Zitman enlarged mini details on old postcards, creating melancholic couples who may never have met.
Love will tear us apart, Esther Zitman
