Overview

The best types of magazines are the ones that pucker up and tackle the real issues. The one’s that don’t dabble in celeb-gossip, provide Kardashian-laced crosswords or provide a definitive guide on how to drive your boyfriend wild. The BEST types of magazines are the ones that don’t take smack, show a bit of grunt and make a reader think about issues of legitimate substance and meaning. That’s why Lip is one of the best types of magazines.

Self-published by women in Melbourne from 1976 to 1984, Lip’s life in the press has held a track record of performance pieces, feminist preachings, ecological statements, social engagement and Labor politics – all deeply intersecting the other making pieces of writing unrivalled by those under the thumb of Uncle Rupert. To celebrate and rediscover Lip’s raw approach to journalism, they’re releasing an anthology of their greatest pieces as chosen by editor Vivian Ziherl.

Brisbane's Institute of Modern Art will be hosting the Brisbane leg of the Lip Anthology Launch this Thursday at 6pm – jog along and admire a creative work that changed Australian mindsets for the better.
