Lampoon is a magazine with an editorial identity based on respect for all human diversity. We support anyone who wants to bring a positive message of civic and social engagement. To construct our narrative, we investigate contemporary aesthetics. We produce editorial photography by bringing creativity and fashion in progress, challenging the state of the art.

The Transparency Issue was released at the end of March 2022. It is concerned with chronicles and reportages in the cultural fields: fashion, design, crafting, and creativity. Available exclusively in target concept stores, newsstands, and bookshops.

Cancel Culture is the market force’s latest attempt to annihilate the masses: a battle that has been going on since the Middle Ages. When Transparency is called for, we seem to assume a lack of Honesty. It should be taken for granted – as long as it refers to practices of common sense and fairness. What we are demanding is transparency in messaging, in stories and narratives, in intentions, in advantages and benefits. Everything can and should be revealed; there is nothing that is hidden that will remain so.
