CHRISTIAN DADA: PURE CREATIVITY FROM TOKYO FASHION WEEK

The Spring Summer 2012 collection of Christian Dada is very dark but absolutely addictive and cool. The black aura that hovers look by look to increase the pathos and to highlight the subtle creativity of the designer.

This season’s theme is entitled “SIGNAL/NOIZE.”  This is the second runway show for the brand, and they exclusively presented womenswear. The collection was developed with influence by dumb type’s work [S/N].  “Signal” represents cloth and “Noise” representing mixed media.  In this vein, they have likened the icon “death” to that of bones, and then created a collection based on this visual.   

THE STUNNING CREATIVITY OF LISA WALKER

“I’m not really a technical expert in anything”, claims jeweller Lisa Walker, and many of her pieces certainly look like it. This is jewellery that seems to leave all traditional notions of skill behind. If you are drawn to a brooch like this one, it is not in admiration of the handwork that lies behind it, but something else. 

Lisa Walker is a New Zealand designer who lives in Germany since many years. An eccentric and bizarre art, which is observed in its exaggeration. These jewelry pieces are stunning and you definitely do not let go unnoticed.

DISNEYLAND "UNDER ATTACK"- MAX PAPESCHI

Max Papeschi is the 'hottest' digital artist of the moment. Disecrator, polemical and politician, director/ author in theater, television and film. As a figurative artist, his approach to the Art-World was an instant success both public and critics. His Politically Scorrect pop cites the 'American Life' revealing its horrors in a way so ironically realistic. From Mickey Mouse to the Ronald McDonald warmongering Nazi cult icons lose their sympathy turned into a collective nightmare. A new-pop poetry from the strong social content, but cut thin, ironic and always over the top.

TERRY RICHARDSON "MOM&DAD" EXHIBITION AT COLETTE

I was in Paris for fashion week but unfortunately i had no time to go around snooping. From the September 26th till November 5th, there's one more reason to go to Colette,"Mom & Dad". The Terry Richardson exhibition that features photos of his parents; a series of portraits, letters and interiors document the very origins of Terry Richardson.  Treating the subject as any of his other shoots, Terry delves deeply and indiscriminately with his camera revealing the all too personal nature of his life… his family life.  The exhibition is joined by a small pop-up store, which will include a selection of products such as T-shirts, G-shock and BabyG Casio watches, Richardson’s Moscot collaborative glasses, “Uncle Terry” figure collection, Terry’s custom bear, and all of Terry’s books.
