British monthly fashion and lifestyle magazine printed by Swinstead Publishing in London between 1996 and 2003. [i]Sleazenation[/i] was one of the UK's most influential publications, inspiring the "new hipster" movement in London's East End in the late 1990s and compared by subsequent writers and critics with Dazed and Confused. The magazine worked with various notable fashion and street photographers, including artist, Alasdair McLellan, Jonathan De Villiers, Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin, and employed a few renowned art directors, such as artist (who established the original style for i-D Magazine) and Scott King. King's "Cher Gueavara" cover from the February 2001 issue won several design awards and was included in the Barbican Centre's 2004 exhibition "Communicate: Independent British Graphic Design since the Sixties." [i]Sleaze Nation[/i] employed Steve Lazarides, a future art dealer and representative of the iconic graffiti artist Banksy, as a picture editor. (Banksy also contributed several illustrations to "Sleeze" and first met Lazarides at the magazine's editorial offices).
