Popping up in new places was the theme this week as Huck took up residency in Old Street station on London’s Underground — and invited a few friends to join us. San Francisco and Cannes were a few of the other places where Huck popped up.
Pop Pop Pop
Huck hosted its first ever pop-up gallery at Old Street, one of London’s busiest tube stations. It was a chance to spotlight a few longtime friends of the magazine including Satta Skates, The Photocopy Club and Puck Collective.
Thanks to everyone who came by. For those outside London who couldn’t drop in to meet our collaborators in person we created “The Station Sessions,” a series of short video interviews with our pop up partners.
San Francisco
The art of popping up was also an entry point for our exploration of San Francisco — one of the themes of Huck 044 (available now on better newsstands, or instantly through Zinio).
Cannes
The other place Huck popped up was the French Riviera, where Sophie Monks Kaufman shared her experience of navigating the world of Cannes for the first time as she checked out the first-time directors competing for coveted Caméra d’Or.
