The leading Dutch daily newspaper De Volkskrant praised Fotozini as a witty, stylish magazine with a clear sense of character: its playful celebration of smoking, from striking images to its tongue-in-cheek pipe-smoking guide, turns an unhealthy subject into something unexpectedly charming and highly entertaining:
“Fotozini smokes like a chimney. Unhealthy, perhaps, but good taste dominates in this witty magazine.” De Volkskrant, 1 October 2025
The second issue of Fotozini presents a jolly crew of handymen and handywomen turning smoke detectors into happiness hotspots. Dive into our visual course on “How to Smoke” for children, and see how Turkish TV put a floral spin on cigarettes in Hollywood films. See how corny 1970s birthday cards always include – apart from cameras and light metres – cigars or cigarettes. We also collected a treasure trove of ashtrays and packets of cigarettes from the East and the West that are simply… yes, to die for.
