Following the launch of the Acne Paper Book in June 2021, Acne Paper is returning. Reimagined with a new design direction: expanding to 500 pages, a revised format and higher production values. The new issue is themed the Age of Aquarius. Noteworthy for both its design and interdisciplinary editorial approach where the past informs the present, Acne Paper will continue to focus on culture in the broadest sense, exploring an eclectic variety of subjects through photography, fashion, art, literature and journalism.

Acne Paper was a biannual magazine that had a brief but remarkable life (2005 – 2014). Fashion spreads were just one element in an editorial mix that focused on culture in the broadest sense, with a keen eye on how the past informs the present. Narrated by a timeless theme explored through photography, art, literature and journalism, Acne Paper published the work of top level contributors from different generations and was admired for its elegant art direction and high production values.
 
Published by Acne Studios and edited by Thomas Persson, Acne Paper was never a brand magazine in the conventional style. While the fashion stories featured clothes from multiple brands, the editorial topics ranged from 15th century tapestry to LGBTQ culture, from master painting to street photography, from theatre to sculpture, from dance to meditation, to mention but a few.
