C41 Magazine Issue 13 — Contemporary Mythologies (Cover N. 2: Isabelle Wenzel)

C41 is an independent magazine published by the creative production company c41.eu. Focused on contemporary issues from all over the world, it reflects the most outstanding visions of our time, by engaging new generations of style leaders at every touchpoint. We represent photographers and film directors that share our vision both in Italy, France and the Netherlands. We believe that every ordinary life makes an extraordinary story.

Men have always needed to believe in something. It is what gives an order to the chaos of existence. Having outgrown traditional religions, in favour of increasingly widespread atheism, new forms of belief are emerging, that similarly dominate our lives. That’s what we mean by contemporary mythologies. Some are positive reference points that guide our lives, while others become real cages. At a time when there seems to be nothing left to believe in, what are the myths we still cling to?
