MacGuffin Magazine Nº 14 – The Wall

From the Apartheid wall in Palestine to digital paywalls, from Jamaican memorial murals to the looming glass facades of modern office towers—MacGuffin Nº 14 explores the cultural, political, and architectural significance of walls in all their forms. This thought-provoking issue examines the tension between openness and exclusion, connection and control, asking: What exactly are we trying to express—or protect—when we build a wall?

A rich tapestry of essays, photography, and visual storytelling, this issue features contributions from renowned thinkers, artists, and writers, including Rem Koolhaas, Ibrahim Mahama, Madelon Vriesendorp, Henk Wildschut, Simone Atangano Bekono, Liv Siddall, and many more.
