Catalogue note
Canongate’s 2010 hardback anthology of VICE material, published as the magazine expanded into an international multimedia organisation. It consolidates reportage, photojournalism, interviews and the VBS online-video era. For TMR it functions as a self-curated institutional snapshot in which VICE packages and interprets its own first phase of magazine and digital culture for a mainstream book publisher.
Credit / attribution note: Introduction by Andy Capper and Jesse Pearson, explicitly recorded from the supplied contents page. Other anthology contributors have not been inferred from the VICE brand.
Why this object matters
Gold Star. More significant than an ordinary later VICE issue because it is a substantial 352-page institutional anthology produced at a transition from cult free magazine toward international multimedia brand. Its sections explicitly connect print reportage, photojournalism and VBS, making it a bridge object between VICE’s magazine culture and digital-video expansion. Within TMR’s deep VICE holdings, it provides a contemporary 2010 retrospective framework for individual issues.
