For the Spring issue of décor magazine Visi, art director Etienne Hanekom of New Media Publishing has used one image to create different covers for the Afrikaans and English titles. When placed side-by-side, the two covers form one picture depicting an assortment of books, ornaments and artefacts that reflect the collector's theme running throughout the magazine. “A magazine cover serves as a shop window and an advertisement for its contents,@ says Visi editor Sumien Brink. Although Brink agrees that magazines can no longer rely entirely on that shop window to drive sales, she firmly believes that a great magazine cover is an art form in itself.
