Artist Research: Dale Konstanz
Dale Konstanz created many zines which have gained him recognition throughout the years, one of the most famous being ‘Concrete Jungle’. This title is very contrasting in the way that one is man made while the other is a natural growth which is helping to grow interest. The front cover for this zine is semi-transparent which is helping to make the writing very clear.

Format/presentation- This zine is presented as an A5 portrait booklet with images which are mostly landscape and cross the whole page. This shows the book as being very compact.
Design/layout- The layout of this zine includes all the images being full blead onto two pages which is showing a clear presentation of the images and allows for details to be seen.
Narrative/ visual concept- The concept of this zine is around the area of ‘concrete jungles’ surrounded by natural elements.
Title/cover page- The title for this zine is very attractive. The transparent cover is allowing for both an image and the title to be seen, the title being presented in simple font. I’m a fan of this technique as it is giving a full insight to what the book will be about.
