Catalogue note
PIMP Magazine No. 12, 'Evolving Styles', is a hardback 2007 special edition of the free UK independent culture title. Its own introduction describes the issue as a celebration of the twelfth edition and a retrospective collection of artists who had helped chronicle the evolution of street and contemporary art across the magazine's first two years. The issue assembles more than thirty artist profiles, including Blek le Rat, D*Face, INSA, David Choe, Conor Harrington, Josh Keyes, Nick Walker, Kate Moross and SAM3, giving it the character of a compact period anthology rather than a conventional disposable free magazine.
Why this object matters
The hardback retrospective with more than thirty artist profiles preserves the title’s own early street-art network in substantial form. Its editorial extent and documented retrospective purpose justify a modest increase to 8.9.
Evidence limits: Complete — all pages/components assumed present under the standing TMR completeness rule; no missing issued component has been reported
