“Arts and Culture are everywhere! What’s special about C/O VIENNA MAGAZINE is that it not only writes about creatives, but produces its stories WITH them, throwing all the rules of classic cultural journalism overboard. C/O Vienna is primarily an INTERVIEW MAGAZINE – with a twist! We let a NASA astronaut tell us about beauty, talk to a nun about feminism or to a butcher about his love for animals.
Each story gets a tailor-made, customized design. With great attention to detail and fancy typography, but without rubrics and other remnants of conserva- tive cultural reporting, we are left with space for the most important thing: stories and interviews beyond convention.”
ISSUE 5: „WHERE THERE’S A WILL, THERE’S A WAY (OUT)!“
An issue about roots. The uniquely german word „Provinz“ is difficult to translate in meaning, as it transcends mere „province“, but also encompasses all aspects of rural life. „Provinz“ is the place you long to escape from, the one you miss once you’re gone. Where geniuses are born, before they get discovered in the city. We tried to approach the topic in 220 pages, while avoiding all clichés and uncovering unknown aspects of it.
Interviews & Stories with Soap&Skin, Mom & Dad, Arnold Schwarzenegger(‘s wax figure), Google & Maps, Eva & Adolf, Dirndl & Braid, Style & Binge Drinking, Andreas Kronthaler & Vivienne Westwood, the Milky Way & Rounabouts, Paul McCarthy & Lilith Stangenberg, Volunteers & the Fire Department, Stefanie Reinsperger & Fury.

Description
C/O Vienna – Magazine #5 – The Provinz Issue
The C/O Vienna Magazine reports on charismatic and creative people, places and projects.
Actually, it‘s done the other way around. First you develop into an established print medium, ignore the signs of the times a little too long, and then hastily open your online presence. However, C/O Vienna Magazine was only ever interested in traditional forms, if it could undermine or discard them, whether in editorial design or journalism. This also explains the decision to no longer be a purely online format, but to also publish a yearly, lavishly produced bookazine, starting in 2019.

PEOPLE WE MET, STORIES WE HEARD.
The centerpiece of our work is our yearly PRINTMAGAZINE. Each issue is lovingly crafted by us and our graphic design bureau SEITE ZWEI, ensuring that each and every story get’s its own individual graphic design and visual vocabulary. Our newest Issue, C/O Vienna #5: The Provinz Issue was released in September 2022
The magazine was founded and continues to be published by Redaktionsbuero Ost in Vienna, which also produces films, books and magazines for independent media, foundations, NGOs, cultural NGOs, cultural institutions, public institutions and companies. C/O Vienna, which has since won numerous international awards, is a separate project and was launched in 2015. It is financed by advertisements, grants, and cooperations. It has become one of the most important independent cultural magazines in Austria. It not only reports about the scene, but is also an important employer and an international platform for creatives and their projects.
