Ten years ago, Berlin-based duo Sven Schumann and Johannes Bonke launched The Talks, an online magazine which publishes weekly interviews with various leading names from the world of art, film, fashion, literature and sports.

From Raf Simons, Giorgio Armani and Iris Apfel, to Al Pacino, Jeff Goldblum and Wes Anderson, The Talks has an international roster of more than 350 contributors including actors, filmmakers, artists, writers, chefs, architects, fashion designers, choreographers, musicians, athletes and more.

Now, to celebrate its tenth anniversary, The Talks has teamed up with Phaidon to release No Idea Is Final: Quotes from the Creative Voices of Our Time, a 400-page collection of the finest excerpts from a decade’s worth of conversations.

Described as “an insightful look into the lives and minds of the creative voices of our time”, No Idea Is Final features words from Marina Abramović, Jane Birkin, Björk, Mick Jagger, LeBron James, Steve McQueen, Jack Nicholson, Meryl Streep Yohji Yamamoto and more.

No Idea Is Final: Quotes from the Creative Voices of Our Time is set to drop on September 30 but is available to pre-order now from the Phaidon webstore.

Now why not read HYPEBEAST’s new Through The Lens series which spotlights emerging and established photographers from around the world.
