House of Vans opens with a celebration of DIY culture, presenting 'Scissors & Glue'; an exhibition and series of talks documenting the brief history of the 'zine. Curated by figures such as
Ben Drury,
Gorm,
Trevor Jackson and
Louise Grey and so representing the pillars of art, skateboarding, music and fashion, respectively, the exhibition pays homage to the roots of independent publishing. 'Scissors & Glue' also marks the introduction of House of Vans London's very first
Vans 'Zine. Guest edited by 'zine guru and sage of self publishing
Jeremy Leslie, issue #1 will reflect upon the current state and future of the magazine, as well as the exhibition itself.
