Marfa Party 2025 Join us for a celebration. Welcome to MARFA Party, a magazine of enormous readability but little significance and even smaller size. In the spirit of the festive party season, we got together some MARFRIENDS for a big do. Bottoms up! MARFA Party is a specially curated edition of all the things we love: art, fashion, music, film and literature. A crème de la crème edit of what we like now, and the perfect gift for all. Our first guest is actress and director Kristen Stewart – shot for our three covers because one wasn’t enough. She talks over her recent directorial debut, Chronology of Water, which received acclaim at Cannes. Next enters the dream dinner guest: writer and journalist Ian Penman, following the release of his book Erik Satie Three Piece Suite. Fashionably late, we then introduce the founders of British art institution, Naomi Siderfin & David Crawforth, the founders of British art institution, Beaconsfield. And finally, across the table, you can hear chatter about the late, great Dame Jilly Cooper, who graces these pages in our tribute to the famed novelist. Cheers to absent friends. Contributions to this special issue come from Zoë Ghertner, Emma Wyman, Alice Neale, Ross Aston, Julia Monsell, Isabelle Sayer, Alexandra Gordienko, Maggie Nelson, Jess Cole, Felix Petty and plenty of other profoundly talented people. MARFA, 2025 Softcover200 x 160mm Marfa Journal (formally Marfamily) is a collaborative project, presenting an intimate take on the current state of culture. It blends various disciplines of contemporary arts into the format of a hardcover book.
