FULL BLEDE

A free broadsheet featuring contemporary writing and art, FULL BLEDE is independently published, designed, edited, and curated by me (Sacha Halona Baumann). Each issue features collaborators responding to a theme and launches in conjunction with an exhibition reception at a Los Angeles gallery. 

With the onset of the pandemic, FULL BLEDE went on hiatus, but all issues are available as free downloads and a few hard copies remain—browse below.

 

Poster commemorating all the spreads from the first ten issues of the broadsheet, created March 2020. A limited number are available for the cost of shipping in a good tube: just $9. Visit the merch page for details.

 

Masthead
The masthead is a nod to the newspaper terms “full bleed” (edge-to-edge printing) and “lede” (the introductory section of a news story that entices the reader to keep reading). Combined, FULL BLEDE expresses the newspaper’s intent to publish content that is intriguing, unadulterated, and beyond the edge of standardized borders of convention.

 

Support
Gifts of support are graciously accepted. All funds received go directly to offsetting costs of printing the first 10 editions of the newspaper and also create opportunities for future printings.
Sending gratitude to these patrons for their generous support: Jana Baumann, Michael Greenslade, and Yemisi Oyeniyi.
You make the newspaper possible!

Issue Five: The Artifact
June 2018

In Issue Five: The Artifact, the broadsheet’s collaborators explore that which remains. For some artifact is a quiet reminder that lingers at present, whether it is outdated or revered. A subtle and sometimes loud ghost of what once was. Artifact also suggestions habits, repeated gestures and behavior. The issue features over 40 contributors and there were 200 copies were printed.

Issue Four: The Pattern
released March 2018

FULL BLEDE's fourth issue explores explores the appearance of sameness. Collaborators share systems of recurrences, whether found in nature, in society at large, or self-manufactured. The broadsheet reveals repetition in our environment but also in behaviours, relationships, and personal routines. Artists and writers elaborate on the air of coherence, which is often the complete opposite: chaotic, messy, and wholly unique, despite its seeming monotony.

The issue features over 40 contributors and launched at Charlie James Gallery in conjunction with the closing receptions for William Powhida: After 'After the Contemporary' and IT'S OK↘, curated by Sacha Baumann ; 200 copies were printed.

Issue Three: The In-between
released October 2017

Issue Two: The City
released July 2017

FULL BLEDE’s second issue finds our talented group of collaborators ruminating the urban condition: how we move, work, live, interact within, survive, enjoy, and view metropoles. For some the environs are decay, trash, sadness, chaos, for others it is a solitary, quiet place amidst the noise. For many it is community, beauty, and indulgence. Whether dark, bright, isolating, inviting—each contributor has a unique expression of The City. The broadsheet is delighted to share their words, design, painting, and illustration. 

Issue Two featured 21 contributors and launched at Dalton Warehouse for the opening reception of the group exhibition Illuminating Threads; 100 copies were printed.

But a city is more than a place in space. It is a drama in time.
— Patrick Geddes

Issue One: The Overshare
released June 3, 2017
 Contributors elaborate on the impulse to disclose too much personal information. How much detail about one’s personal life is too much? Where do we draw the line at being inappropriate when disclosing experiential information? Does our voyeurism feed the narcissism of those who just can’t stop disseminating trivial minutiae? Are we overly judgmental about those who reveal? How about those who can’t look away? Chock full of #tmi, FULL BLEDE is delighted to debut The Overshare. Our contributors criticize, observe, and in some cases, confess perhaps too much. With an eclectic mix of illustration, graphic design, poetry, mixed media collage, writing, photography, and painting, The Overshare explores sex, love, isolation, outrage, selfie culture, justice, anxiety, age, overly complicated scenarios, and secret behaviour.

Issue One featured 17 contributors and was launched at the opening reception for 2nd & Hope: Side Hustle, 100 issues were printed.
