Adventure Travel, Island Escapes, and High-Design Superyachts & Private
Jets
JACKSON, Wyo.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–LUXURY MAGAZINE, the quarterly publication available exclusively to
Luxury Card™ members, unveiled its Summer 2019 issue today:
Adventure Travel, Island Escapes, and High-Design Superyachts & Private
Jets. The premium publication offers trends and features across all
categories of luxury lifestyle—from travel, adventure, and fashion to
home design, real estate, and technology. Each issue also features as
the cover art a well-known or up-and-coming artist, making every edition
a unique collector’s item for our Cardmembers.
“There’s a reason the songs of summer are always about fun; it’s the
season for surfing stupendous swells, camping by a lake, sailing
unchartered seas,” says Editor-in-Chief Deborah Frank, “and this issue
covers the top places to do it all, whether on an eco-conscious
superyacht, an off-road motorbike, or in a high-performance SUV.”
Highlights from the Summer issue include:
Cover Artist: Kenneth Noland
American abstract painter
Kenneth Noland is recognized as one of the great colorists of the 20th
century. Noland was largely informed and popularized by art critic
Clement Greenberg, who guided him to take abstraction in new directions.
Noland’s series of simple graphic compositions—concentric circles known
as targets, iconic chevrons, and horizontal bands of stripes—vary in
layout to explore the effects of color. This issue’s cover art New Day
(1967), currently on display at the Whitney Museum of American Art,
comprises horizontal bands of pure and varied color; unchecked at the
ends of the canvas, the stripes carry the viewer’s eyes back and forth
across the surface.
Sky’s the Limit
Our editors take a close look at the
unprecedented demand for private aviation. Noting a strong economy,
companies like NetJets, Flexjet and VistaJet are competing to attract
corporate and private travelers with cutting-edge new jets, the latest
avionics and personal service. Industry giants Bombardier, Cessna and
Gulfstream are deeply investing in new aircraft, focusing on the quality
and personalization of the cabin interiors.
Catch Me If You Can
Sport fishing for marlin and sailfish is
more sophisticated than ever with high-tech gizmos, color sonar and NASA
satellite helping anglers find the best spots to lay claim. We explore
the high-stakes “Fab Five” billfish tournaments from around the world
where anglers fish big to win big. We also highlight the super-high-end
spectrum of the sport fishing lifestyle, where megayachts and midday
lunch breaks include A5 wagyu beef and personal GoPro footage of the
day’s events.
Vanishing Act
We investigate the disappearance of coral
reefs across the world and how local community efforts and NGOs can make
a lasting impact. From the Great Barrier Reef in Australia to Seychelles
off East Africa, we focus on 12 key reefs, talk to field experts about
the health and longevity of the world’s oceans, and spotlight the best
ways to see those pristine reefs that are still vibrant and teeming with
life.
