Over the last 15 years, KALEIDOSCOPE has collaborated with an exceptional array of artists and creators on editorial projects, exhibitions and cultural initiatives, affirming itself as a meeting place for the global avant-garde. A shapeshifter, yet always true to itself.

In September 2024, KALEIDOSCOPE celebrates its 15th anniversary with a metamorphosis—a new era of magazine publishing, with each seasonless issue envisioned as a monographic album that challenges the preconceived standards of the publishing industry with a new physicality, frequency, and sense of discovery.

Titled AMERICAN FANTASY, the first chapter of this expansive editorial continuum is entirely dedicated to the work and legacy of an American living icon—the photographer, filmmaker, and underground artist Richard Kern.

Published in partnership with Guess USA, AMERICAN FANTASY juxtaposes newly-commissioned bodies of work and a selection of outstanding archival material, with contributions by a variety of friends, muses, fans, and special guests.
