THERE ARE APPROXIMATELY 183 MILLION MARIJUANA SMOKERS IN THE WORLD, YET ONLY FOUR COUNTRIES HAVE LEGALIZED IT. AS A RESULT, THIS COMMUNITY SUFFERS FROM A LACK OF CONTENT AND ENTERTAINMENT CONCERNING WEED. 500 GR IS THE FIRST MAGAZINE THAT APPLIED GRAPHIC DESIGN AND ILLUSTRATION TO ENHANCE THE SMOKING WEED EXPERIENCE. ITS DESIGN IS INTENDED TO SUBMERGE THE READER IN A HIGHLY SENSORIAL TRIP. IT ALL STARTS WITH A COVER THAT SIMULATES A BAG OF WEED, WHILE THE ART INSIDE HOOKS YOU UP PAGE BY PAGE. 500 GR MAGAZINE WEIGHTS 500 GR.
IN THIS ISSUE APPEARS ARTISTS LIKE LOLA DRUPE, ALEX TROCHUT, BRUNO PONTILORI, ZIPENG ZHU, BILL NOIR, OSCAR GUERRERO OR JAVIER BIDEZABAL.
